Boys like you were born to waste You never listen to what I say And if you think you're here to mess around You'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 say You're much too dumb to educate One day life's going to come around and Slap you in the face
You can run back the hard way (You can take the hard way) You can take the hard way
Well, you do it your way And I'll do it my way And I'll be the one to survive
Because with no foundation or qualifications There's no way that you can get by No, no way you can get by
Why don't you take the easy way? Why don't you co-operate? Don't just sit there and masturbate You're winding up illiterate? C'mon now
Hey, you think that life's a vacation, you've no inclination To dust away the cobwebs of your mind Now it's time for confrontation and I'm tired of being patient So I've got to be cruel to be kind Yes, I've got to be cruel to be kind
Wasting my vocation teaching you to write neat When you're only fit to sweep the streets Your intellect is such, that it requires a killer's touch So I'm going to play it your way, we'll take the hard way
Gonna take the hard way You can take the hard way Gonna take the hard way You can take the hard way C'mon now
