Playing The Game - Lyrics - Ywis

It isn’t easy wanting To change the world at fourteen Nor fighting people And countries you’ve never seen You think it’s strange that grown-ups Never noticed the wrong being done And you’ll take every chance to tell them How this old world should be run The world around you is so cruel Though you can’t grasp the real scene At least your friends share your ideals You fight the truth as a team Your feelings are constantly confused Still you love life just the same 'Cause you know that things will change And you will beat them at their game You’d better hang on to your dreams You’d better hang on... It isn’t easy staying the same After your teens And be accepted in your job When you are wearing blue jeans You still think it’s strange that people Don't want to see the wrong being done But now you are not so sure About how this old world should be run The world around you is cruel You know it’s worse the real scene And you don't have too many friends And you don’t belong to a team Now you seldom get confused And you love life just the same But you can’t be sure if things will change And now you're playing in their game You’d better hang on to your dreams You’d better hang on... It isn’t easy being yourself When you’re wearing blue jeans You don’t care about People and countries You’ve never seen You think it's strange That youngsters even try to fight The wrong being done And if you get a chance you tell them This is the way this world should be run The world around you is so cruel But you don’t want to see that scene You share society’s ideals And you play on the first team Now you never get confused And your lives are the same And you don’t care if things will change ’Cause you’ll never win this game You’d better hang on to your dreams You’d better hang on...
