Climb up ready now, no standing
In the shade
Rock yourself from sleep, it's time
To come of age
And never lose those dreams, lose sight
Of those desires
And when it's hot, don't get too close
To the fire
Looking you'll find one to reach you
Another with the skill to teach you
Got no more treats left to feed you
Oh look out life, one's coming through
Let the music rise and take you
And let the poetry embrace you
That's free advice I give you
Oh look out life, one's coming through
Jump into a lighter light
That makes you shine
To see a tear, to see a light
To feel mine
Expect the big mistakes
You'll get even bigger highs
Don't let them get you
Looking you'll find one to reach you
Another with the skill to teach you
Got no more treats left to feed you
Oh look out life, one's coming through
Let the music rise and take you
And let the poetry embrace you
That's free advice I give you
Oh look out life, one's coming through
Don't be hard, on the boy
Don't be hard, on the boy
Don't be hard, on the boy
In the shade
Rock yourself from sleep, it's time
To come of age
And never lose those dreams, lose sight
Of those desires
And when it's hot, don't get too close
To the fire
Looking you'll find one to reach you
Another with the skill to teach you
Got no more treats left to feed you
Oh look out life, one's coming through
Let the music rise and take you
And let the poetry embrace you
That's free advice I give you
Oh look out life, one's coming through
Jump into a lighter light
That makes you shine
To see a tear, to see a light
To feel mine
Expect the big mistakes
You'll get even bigger highs
Don't let them get you
Looking you'll find one to reach you
Another with the skill to teach you
Got no more treats left to feed you
Oh look out life, one's coming through
Let the music rise and take you
And let the poetry embrace you
That's free advice I give you
Oh look out life, one's coming through
Don't be hard, on the boy
Don't be hard, on the boy
Don't be hard, on the boy
