Knack - The Hard Way Lyrics
You never listen to what I sayAnd if you think you're here to mess aroundYou're making a big mistake'Cos you're gonna find out the hard wa(You can take the hard way)You can take the hard way(You can take the hard way)No matter what I do or sayYou're much too dumb to educateOne day life's going to come around andSlap you in the faceYou can run back the hard way(You can take the hard way)You can take the hard wayWell, you do it your wayAnd I'll do it my wayAnd I'll be the one to surviveBecause with no foundation or qualificationsThere's no way that you can get byNo, no way you can get byWhy don't you take the easy way?Why don't you co-operate?Don't just sit there and masturbateYou're winding up illiterate?C'mon nowHey, you think that life's a vacation, you've no inclinationTo dust away the cobwebs of your mindNow it's time for confrontation and I'm tired of being patientSo I've got to be cruel to be kindYes, I've got to be cruel to be kindWasting my vocation teaching you to write neatWhen you're only fit to sweep the streetsYour intellect is such, that it requires a killer's touchSo I'm going to play it your way, we'll take the hard wayGonna take the hard wayYou can take the hard wayGonna take the hard wayYou can take the hard wayC'mon now
