Don't Get Caught
Life is hard and don't last too long
There's no difference
Between what is right and wrong
I rest my defence
When you're young, you grab what you can
Make your name around the land
But remember all the things you've been taught
And never, never get caught
Things will always be very tough
No time for compassion
'Cause you will never have enough
Got to get your ration
Middle-aged, you got to jump right in
'Cause the chances are growing thin
Just remember the things you've been taught
And never, never ever
'Cause when you're young, you gotta grab what you can
Make your name around the land
But remember all the things you've been taught
And never, never ever, get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught
There's no way to escape from time
A little love helps to mend
What's the harm in a tiny crime
Before you descend?
This is the age to try and relax
Have some fun before the axe
Just remember the things you've been taught
And never, never ever
In middle age, you gotta jump right in
'Cause the chances are growing thin
Just remember all the things you've been taught
And never, never ever, get caught
And that is the end of the line
Or maybe it's not
Just bequeath them some stolen wine
Or whatever you've got
The things you slipped away without
Will make some people jump and shout
Just remember the things you've been taught
And never, never ever
When you're young, you grab what you can
Make your name around the land
But remember all the things you've been taught
And never, never get caught
It's the age to try and relax
Have some fun before the axe
Just remember the things you've been taught
And never, never ever, get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't be caught, don't be caught
Don't get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught
There's no difference
Between what is right and wrong
I rest my defence
When you're young, you grab what you can
Make your name around the land
But remember all the things you've been taught
And never, never get caught
Things will always be very tough
No time for compassion
'Cause you will never have enough
Got to get your ration
Middle-aged, you got to jump right in
'Cause the chances are growing thin
Just remember the things you've been taught
And never, never ever
'Cause when you're young, you gotta grab what you can
Make your name around the land
But remember all the things you've been taught
And never, never ever, get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught
There's no way to escape from time
A little love helps to mend
What's the harm in a tiny crime
Before you descend?
This is the age to try and relax
Have some fun before the axe
Just remember the things you've been taught
And never, never ever
In middle age, you gotta jump right in
'Cause the chances are growing thin
Just remember all the things you've been taught
And never, never ever, get caught
And that is the end of the line

Just remember the things you've been taught
And never, never ever
When you're young, you grab what you can
Make your name around the land
But remember all the things you've been taught
And never, never get caught
It's the age to try and relax
Have some fun before the axe
Just remember the things you've been taught
And never, never ever, get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't be caught, don't be caught
Don't get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught, don't get caught
Don't get caught
