lyrics
got no money to buy shoes
today I found a pair of boots
will make them shine until the soles fall of
then cobble them with glue
got no money for a sky account
I like to sleep under the stars
It gives me more than watching birds fly by
at home through television glass
sometimes I’m scared of the future
are we heading the right way?
sometimes I question every step I take
sometimes I want to run away
got no money to buy needles gifts
please don’t get me wrong my friend
from time to time I feel ashamed of it
there are other ways to glance
got no money for a pension plan
can money buy security
got just enough to get me through the day
and who knows what will be?
sometimes I’m scared of the future
are we heading the right way?
sometimes I question every step I take
sometimes I want to run away
got no money left to spare
but it’s not that i don’t care
it’s a choice that I’ve made
cause I don’t rely on fate
no fear no hope shall ever tie me again
it seems like a fair trade
got no money left to burn
but I like the lesson learnt
guess I’ve got nothing to lose
and I’ve got nothing to proof
I’ve quit the circus now I’m free
free as one can be
sometimes I’m scared of the future
are we heading the right way?
sometimes I question every step I take
sometimes I want to run away
sometimes I’m scared of the future
are we heading the right way?
sometimes I question every breath we take
sometimes I want to run away
