You say you'd never do therapy
You think the whole thing is wrong
How could somebody care 'bout you
With the clock tickin' on?

You say you'd better get up, shake yourself down
Look after number one
You'd better look out look out look out look out
Never lose track, could be a knife in your back
Don't step on the crack
Or you could fall down

I say what if you're powerless
You're pinned to the ground?
But my words bounce back off your chest
You only hear your own sound

You say you'd better get up, shake yourself down
Look after number one
You'd better look out look out look out look out
Never lose track, could be a knife in your back
Don't step on the crack
Or you could fall down

I hear you're back on your own again
What are you gonna do?
Could it be your philosophy
Is not working for you?
You say you'd better get up, shake yourself down
Look after number one
You'd better look out look out look out look out
Never lose track, could be a knife in your back
Don't step on the crack
Or you could fall down
