Let's Make It Work! Lyrics

My friends say we're stuck in a hopless thing
They all say the same thing - it can't work
Our life's so full of strife
It make's you reach for the knife
It won't work, aw but you know the feeling
So it goes & now it's gone
You & me we struggle on
Please seize these chains that hold us back
Let's make it work!

Life lists on & we survive, but it sucks us dry
The bitter waste, chances passed
And we passed them on
Now everybody's saying our time has gone
So it goes & now it's gone
You & me we struggle on
Please seize these chains that hold us back
Let's make it work!

The world's upside down & backwards round, yes it is
To serve no purpose only profit
That brutal? More so: To serve them all days & nights
Why, every waking hour! And more besides
Some say we're stuck in this life of pain but I maintain we can change it
All that we need, we've got it
To cut loose from this sham, God d***!
Seize these chains that hold us back

Others make this a world in crisis
- Let's make it work!
You & me, we struggle on
And so it goes
d*** wrong! Seize these chains that hold us back
Let's make it work!
