Get busy living, or get busy - dying. Oh.
Got a debt to pay, got to pay one day, I ain't lying
People crying, ain't no denying
Trying to survive,
Trying to survive.

Stay alive, take a drive, and dive - ah, dive…..
Take a dive Take a drive Take a dive Take a drive stay alive yes ah..

Days are growing colder
Nights are getting Long
Kids are growing older
Soon they will be gone
Leaving for the city
The old life disappears
Machines be taking all the jobs
There ain't no more work round here
Because what we give is what we get
And for what we take, one day we must pay

This will be our future
This be me and you
How to earn a living
When there ain't no work to do
Machines all do it for us
We just sitting on the shelf
Don't need us to repair them
They do it all themself
Because what we give is what we get
And for what we take, one day we must pay

And the world be daily turning
While we turning up the heat
And the bellies daily burning
Cos they still got no food to eat
Turn water into whiskey
Turn whiskey into wine
The world be living hand to mouth
And we pretend everything is fine
Because what we give is what we get
And for what we take, one day we must pay

The beast is in the east
And the west is still the best
This cancer of humanity gonna
Put the planet to the test
Eating up the world and saying
Everything all right
Extinction gonna take us
Like an assassin in the night
Because what we give is what we get
And for what we take, one day we must pay

One thing that will always be
Forever true for sure
The rich be getting richer
And the poor be always poor
It's all about the money
Gotta make the biggest buck
About you and me or the world to be
The rich don't give a - absolutely
Because what we give is what we get
And for what we take, one day we must pay

One day we must pay…
