Give and Take
Wake up, wake up summertime
You slept right into autumn
Reform your ways, and tidy up your summer life
You'll need a jacket where we're going
I can't be sure why I ever sold my soul
To a voluntary prison
Where reason rots and dogma rules over hallowed ground
And they say give and take is all we are given
We're given yeah
And I propose tonight we take our time
But I hope we don't, take our time
Winter froze the inmates of cell 44
Spring turned them to ashes
They gave all they could give and took all they could take
It was more than they had ever dared imagine
Let us pull a humble page from that old tome
Write our own equation
We are the flesh robots denying what we're made from
So let us end these years of obfuscation
And I propose tonight we take our time
But I hope we don't take much time
And I propose tonight we take our time
I hope we never take our time
Take our time
Give and take and give and take
Give and take and give and take
Give and take and give and take
Give and take and give and take
Give and take and give and take
Give and take and give and take
Give and take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take take and
Give and take is all we are given
Give and take is all we are given
Give and take is all we are given
Give and take is all we are given
You slept right into autumn
Reform your ways, and tidy up your summer life
You'll need a jacket where we're going
I can't be sure why I ever sold my soul
To a voluntary prison
Where reason rots and dogma rules over hallowed ground
And they say give and take is all we are given
We're given yeah
And I propose tonight we take our time
But I hope we don't, take our time
Winter froze the inmates of cell 44
Spring turned them to ashes
They gave all they could give and took all they could take
It was more than they had ever dared imagine
Let us pull a humble page from that old tome
Write our own equation
We are the flesh robots denying what we're made from
So let us end these years of obfuscation
And I propose tonight we take our time
But I hope we don't take much time
And I propose tonight we take our time
I hope we never take our time
Take our time
Give and take and give and take
Give and take and give and take
Give and take and give and take
Give and take and give and take
Give and take and give and take
Give and take and give and take
Give and take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take, take take and
Give and take is all we are given
Give and take is all we are given
Give and take is all we are given
Give and take is all we are given
