You can call it anything you want the fact remains the same
I never got to be your Fred Astaire
You can lie to yourself and all your friends and pretend that you don`t care
But circumstance gets in the way
You have so many opportunities I never had
Don`t push so hard, nothing is ever easy
And this talent that you take for granted, it`s a gift from god
Don`t pass it up, nothing is ever easy
Are you ready to work real hard
Playing tired it`s just the start
Listen to me son, I`ll take you far
(chorus)
You can call it anything you want the fact remains the same
I never got to be your Fred Astaire
You can lie to yourself and all your friends and pretend that you don`t care
But circumstance gets in the way
Heel, toe, heel, toe, side to side AGAIN, gonna get it right
Don`t push so hard, nothing is ever easy
Don`t forget your please and thank you`s, don`t forget to smile
Don`t pass this up, nothing is ever easy
(chorus)
Their pushing these children for all the wrong reasons
So far man you`re crushing down their spirits
You`re pushing these children for all the wrong reasons
So far man you`re crushing down their spirits
Suffocate, emancipate, turn their backs and walk away eventually(x4)
Seeking, one of these paths(come in on second time)
You`re wasting time --- I call it living
To the world what are you giving
You`re wasting time?
(chorus)(x2)
cause i never got to be your Fred Astaire(x2)
(chorus)
