Your friend's overseas on a big OE And you wish you could You've rejected the age but you're not in the place Like you planned you would The job where you could make it big Just never has been found Your peers move in high places while You're still on the ground
And all along the way There's a price you've had to pay
Life is hard People are strange But God is good
You flood your laundry as you burn your toast Flies and salesmen at your door Your kids new kitty-cat is ravaged by The mongrel dog next door Interest rates are on the rise The visa's in arrears Your next door neighbour buys the car You've wanted all these years

Don't try and sail your own ship Or keep a stiff upper lip Let God be God And you be you 'Cos He's faithful
And love has come and gone again And left you high and dry At times you've felt in numb despair And really wondered why
