When I was young I was told what to want I've got a wife and babies too I've tried so hard But all my feelings have gone So have my wife and money too So I'm giving up Time for easy action So I'm giving up I'm gonna do what I want I always worked if I envy part of the scheme of things (? ) One weeks work one weeks pay I find it hard The (? ) not so easy So I'm heading up and moving out Giving up It's a cool reaction Oh I'll give it up Don't want to fight no more Giving up Time for easy action There's always been a feeling down inside of me I don't care I (? ) I'm off the wall Giving up Time for easy action I'm giving up I'm gonna do just what I want Giving up It's a cool reaction Oh I'll give it up Don't want to fight no more Giving up Time for easy action Giving up What I wanted was before Giving up It's a cool reaction Giving up I shall overcome
