Down by Law

Down by Law - Giving It All Away lyrics

Now you see it, see it everywhere

all around the world they're giving it all away

so many faces slaving for someone

if you hate your job then you're giving it all away

and television feeds an empty mind

40 channels but what have we got?

Seeing adventures can be so unkind

when it seems like you never took your shot

and you were gonna write your own ticket ....

a&r man says he'll make us rick

promises of giving so much away

well promises are easy to find

like selling umbrellas on a rainy day

"but what's a value here or there my friend?

Values won't keep you warm in the end

independence is all very nice

but bed and breakfast always comes with a price"

and you were gonna write your own ticket ....

but those tickets aren't so easy to come by

see that man? He's working hard for it

hates it, lonely -- he's giving it all away

got a bright new car and he's staying late for it

cause if he don't they'll take it all away

see that girl? You'd do anything for her

she's all get no give, and still you stay

and you were gonna write your own ticket ....
