Never let the old man in Lyrics

I wouldn't say that there was anything about me that's spectacular

But I might agree that there is something worth fighting for

I don't see anything much that sets me apart from others but there you are

And I honestly wish that I could give you more

I wouldn't want to sound big-headed or anything like that

But being fairly normal well that is where it's at

There's no pecking order, no sitting at the top

There's a clear red line where everything must stop

I just want to be myself to get it right and do the best I can

Be strong and beautiful and do the right thing well

Take note of what's around you always show and tell

Look up or down to nobody it's not about who wins

And above all else never ever let the old man in

I wouldn't say that it was easy to get the whole thing right

There's nothing much worth losing sleep for overnight

There's something to be said for putting up a fight

But never think that it's your job to set the world alight

You only need look when things come into sight

Be strong and beautiful and do the right thing well

Take note of what's around you always show and tell

Look up or down to nobody it's not about who wins

And above all else never ever let the old man in

Keep on going as long as you can and never ever be an old man

Keep on going as long as you can and never ever be an old man

Look at me I can speak look at me I'm complete

Look at you where did you go it looks like the end of the show

Look at life shake it up and drink from nature's cup

Grow your hair don't stand and stare

The old man doesn't need to know, the old man doesn't need to know

Keep on going as long as you can and never ever be an old man

Keep on going as long as you can and never ever be an old man
