Bag of tricks

I look straight ahead to see the future
Instead of peering into the past
And then collecting dust.

Someone once said
That where there’s money there’s bread,
And when it’s time to rise that
You don’t rust instead.

Lunatics, well they love politics.
Medicine was made for college kids.
I know I’m not a bag of tricks…
I know.

And don’t you forget that when this all turns to debt
And the sun starts to set on your charity case,
'cuz life is a bet, you know you give and you get,
You know you can’t be upset when you’re losing the race.
