It Don't Happen Overnight
Workin' for peanuts and breaking your back
For a boss you pretend to like
Well, no one told you it was gonna be easy
'Cause it don't happen overnight
You say you got big dreams
'Bout that house, little home
And every little detail about it will be so right
You know by that flat that you're living in
It don't happen overnight
Well, all your sick friends and those stray cats
They may not have to fight for their lives
Just look up the block, you may shake your head
'Cause it don't happen overnight
They say Einstein, he couldn't tie his shoes
His teachers claimed he was not so very bright
His threads were thin, the cat was famished
It don't happen overnight
For a boss you pretend to like
Well, no one told you it was gonna be easy
'Cause it don't happen overnight
You say you got big dreams
'Bout that house, little home
And every little detail about it will be so right
You know by that flat that you're living in
It don't happen overnight
Well, all your sick friends and those stray cats
They may not have to fight for their lives
Just look up the block, you may shake your head
'Cause it don't happen overnight
They say Einstein, he couldn't tie his shoes
His teachers claimed he was not so very bright
His threads were thin, the cat was famished
It don't happen overnight
