"You Always Get What You Give"
by the New Radicals


Written by Gregg Alexander and Rick Nowels


One two, one two three, oh

Wake up kids
We've got the dreamers disease
Age fourteen
They got you down on your knees
So polite
We're busy still saying please

Frienemies
Who when you're down ain't your friend
Every night
We smash their Mercedes Benz
First we run
And then we laugh till we cry

But when the night is falling
You cannot find the light (light)
If you feel your dream is dying
Hold tight

You got the music in you
Don't let go
You got the music in you
One dance left
This world is gonna pull through
Don't give up
You got a reason to live
Can't forget
We only get what we give

I'm coming home baby
For your touch
Give it to me now

Four am
We ran the miracle mile
We're flat broke
But hey we do it in style
The bad rich
God's flying in for your trial

But when the night is falling
You cannot find a friend (friend)
You feel your tree is breaking
Just then

You got the music in you
Don't let go
You got the music in you
One dance left
This world is gonna pull through
Don't give up
You got a reason to live
Can't forget
We only get what we give

This whole damn world can fall apart
You'll be OK, follow your heart
You're in harms way, I'm right behind
Now say you're mine

You got the music in you
Don't let go
You got the music in you
One dance left
This world is gonna pull through
Don't give up
You got a reason to live
Can't forget
We only get what we give
Don't let go
I feel the music in you

Fly high
What's real can't die
You only get what you give
You're gonna get what you give
Don't give up
Just don't be afraid to leave

Health insurance rip off lying
FDA big bankers buying
Fake computer crashes dining
Cloning while they're multiplying
Fashion shoots with Beck and Hanson
Courtney Love and Marilyn Manson
You're all fakes run to your mansions
Come around we'll kick your ass in

Don't let go
One dance left
Don't give up
Can't forget
