lyrics

I was going out of town
To try my luck in the sunny South
In the train I met a man
He said "You better, better, better have a plan!"
"Why, why? Why should I care?
I've got a whistle and a beat and a snare!"
"My, my, your innocence hurts...
That song won't work with this kind of birds!
You better
Use your head if you want to get closer
Use your hands if you want to get dirty
Use your fist if you want to get bolder
Use your friends if you want to get older"

So I went down to the South
With a new lesson in my mouth

Something, something, something just new
Something that can put is through
All these pyramids and different layers
But without using the old prayers

"Why, why? Why should I care?
I've got a whistle and a beat and a snare!"
"My, my, your innocence hurts...
That song won't work with this kind of birds!
You better
Use your head if you want to get closer
Use your hands if you want to get dirty
Use your fist if you want to get bolder
Use your friends if you want to get older"

In the middle I got the riddle
I gotta use my magic fiddle
I gotta turn it into an arrow and bow
And maybe then I can defeat the law
