--------- When the wrecking ball swings wild And knocks you down a peg Reality is as hard as a rock. In a desperate moment Make sure you don't get fooled. Spare yourself the worry and shock. I know it now. Having been knocked over Once or twice. You can't follow everyone's Advice. You can't follow everyone's advice. You can't follow everyone's advice. No, no, sooner or later It's got to come out of you. You can't follow everyone's advice. It's a pride and pa**ion thing That has the truthful ring. Don't cut yourself on someone else's tongue. 'Cause they can paint a flowery view But in the end it's up to you. The sweetest blossom somtimes leaves you stung.
