Do you ever get tired of the
football kids
With their sporty styles
When you stay home
they run miles
<interlude DF>
And don't you ever get bored
with the job You've got
You wanted it badly
But wish you were on the dole
I've got what it takes to be
on my way
With pen and paper I'll say
I know you all
Read about yourselves
in my essay
I've got what it takes to be
on my way
In a book I'll claim
Do you ever get tired of the
friends you have
As you got them talking
There's no stopping them now
<interlude DF>
And don't you ever get tired
Of the lack of time
Whatever you're starting
always goes on for years
I felt tired tonight
Keep me out of sight
<interlude DF>
I've got what it takes to be
on my way
With pen and paper I'll say
I know you all
Read about yourselves
in my essay
I've got what it takes to be
on my way
In a book I'll claim
I know your kind
You fill up my mind
