[Verse 1]
Don't hang around, boy; find yourself a job
Get it next year or better take it today
Don't let the others already come to top
Create security for the time you're out of date

[Chorus]
Before you get old at the underground
Soakin' your life away

[Verse 2]
Some pretty nice boys say you must be mad
You must be jokin'; is it funny or sad?
You must be throwing your life away
Can't bear existence from powered life all day

[Chorus]
You'll miserably die in a dead-end street
Soakin' your life away
You'll miserably die in a dead-end street
Soakin' your life away

[Bridge]
I got an amp and a guitar
I'm gonna be a star
Important things in life I'd never sell
Got the world and I got you
Nothing more to do
But future is a thing that I can't tell
[Solo]

[Chorus]
You'll miserably die in a dead-end street
Soakin' your life away
You'll miserably die in a dead-end street
Soakin' your life away

[Bridge]
I got an amp and a guitar
I'm gonna be a star
Important things in life I'd never sell
Got the world and I got you
Nothing more to do
But future is a thing that I can't tell
