Kinks - The Hard Way текст песни

Boys like you were born to waste,

You never listen to a word I say

And if you think youre here to mess around,

Youre making a big mistake,

cos youre gonna find out the hard way,

You gonna find out the hard way.

No matter what I do or say,

Youre much too dumb to educate.

One day lifes going to turn around and slap you in the face,

Then youre gonna find out the hard way.

Youll take the hard way,

Gonna take the hard way.

Well, youll do it your way and Ill do it my way,

And well see whos the one to survive.

Youll find that with no foundation

Or qualifications

Theres no way that you can get by,

No, theres no way you can get by.

Why dont you take the easy way?

Why dont you co-operate?

Dont just sit there and vegetate.

Do you want to end up illiterate?

You think that lifes a vacation

And youve no inclination

To dust away the cobwebs of your mind.

Now its time for confrontation

And Im tired of being patient,

So Ive got to be cruel to be kind.

Youve got to be cruel to be kind.

Im wasting my vocation teaching you to write neat

When youre only fit to sweep the streets.

Your intellect is such

That it requires a killers touch.

So Im going to play it your way,

Well take the hard way.

Going to take the hard way,

You can take the hard way.

Gonna take the hard way,

Gonna take the hard way.
