Up From Zero — текст песни (Tankard)

Every day I`m a slave to the grind
Think I`m loosing my mind
9 to 5 ain`t mu kind of routine
Ain`t nobody`s machine
Boss says: think of the future
But what about today?
`Cos if I die tomorrow
There ain`t no time to waste

I`m leaving
I`m doing my own thing
I`ll do it...on my own

Wanna feel I`m alive, I`m a man
Gonna do all I can
Gonna try til I get what I need
Never give ups my creed
Make up your mind and do it
And feel you`re wild at heart
Life is to short to worry
You`ve got to make a start

Up from zero - to where I wanna be
No one`s hero - I do it just for me
Up from zero - it may be hard to do
No one`s hero - but you can make it too

Outta work, outta cash, outta booze
But I won`t sing no blues
Gonna play, gonna will, wanna bet?
Don`t you think I`m done yet
When bad luck gets me down, hey
I`ll just get up again
No room for desperation
`Cos I like happy ends

I`ll rise up
Show you what I can take
I`ll make it...check it out

Doesn`t help to complain about your fate
Cos there ain`t no escape
What you do is you put up a fight
Get a grip, set things right
When she starts getting nasty
Look fortune in the eye
She will smile down upon you
If you just really try

Up from zero - to where I wanna be
No one`s hero - I do it just for me
Up from zero - it may be hard to do
No one`s hero - but you can make it too

Every day I`m a slave to the grind
Think I`m loosing my mind
9 to 5 ain`t mu kind of routine
Ain`t nobody`s machine
Boss says: think of the future
But what about today?
`Cos if I die tomorrow
There ain`t no time to waste

I`m leaving
I`m doing my own thing
I`ll do it...on my own

Wanna feel I`m alive, I`m a man
Gonna do all I can
Gonna try til I get what I need
Never give ups my creed
Make up your mind and do it
And feel you`re wild at heart
Life is to short to worry
You`ve got to make a start

Up from zero - to where I wanna be
No one`s hero - I do it just for me
Up from zero - it may be hard to do
No one`s hero - but you can make it too
