Bones Don't Rust
Never any call for a lone wolf
You have to learn to go with the flow
But they can find a use for a scarecrow
Depending on your stomach for crows
Always gonna need a little muscle
If you prove yourself worthy of trust
Your bones don't rust
Haven't checked a mirror in years
Don't need to know the bad news
There's not gonna be a gold watch
After 30 years of paying your dues
Show up five minutes early as usual
Work on just a couple hours' rest
Your bones don't rust
They stay hard as diamonds
They cut through steel
They still sing when they're hungry
And they ache when they're angry
Listen for the voice of the spirit
Maybe something wrong with your ears
Always on the edge of collapse now
Absolutely nobody cares
But everybody loves a professional
Not a single track in the dust
Your bones don't rust
(Your bones don't rust)
(Your bones don't rust)
You have to learn to go with the flow
But they can find a use for a scarecrow
Depending on your stomach for crows
Always gonna need a little muscle
If you prove yourself worthy of trust
Your bones don't rust
Haven't checked a mirror in years
Don't need to know the bad news
There's not gonna be a gold watch
After 30 years of paying your dues
Show up five minutes early as usual
Work on just a couple hours' rest
Your bones don't rust
They stay hard as diamonds
They cut through steel
They still sing when they're hungry
And they ache when they're angry
Listen for the voice of the spirit
Maybe something wrong with your ears
Always on the edge of collapse now
Absolutely nobody cares
But everybody loves a professional
Not a single track in the dust
Your bones don't rust
(Your bones don't rust)
(Your bones don't rust)
