paroles de chanson I'm Ready - Mike Love

Gone are the days of playing charades
And telling stories by the campfire
These are the times when no one unwinds
And the day that you die is when you retire
And minimum wage is just what you'll take
Even at your age, just to get hired
They got you by the balls so when the boss calls you

You better come running, you better come running

Pick up the slack and get off your ass
And take out the trash little brother
And if you can't there's always someone
Who can and you'll get the can brother
It's a fucked up system, got you by the throat again
Like a sheep in a pen
I don't wanna be 75 years old, still doing as I'm told, flipping burgers at the McDonalds drive thru. Would you?

I wanna live where the ocean meets the sand
And hand in hand we'll be dancing
And I will be where the skyline meets the trees
Do as I please, waste my days away

Hey brother what do you say, lets go out and play
Cause every day is so precious
And all the money you spend don't matter
In the end when all your possessions are crumbling to dust
And pollution, only an illusion, never everlasting Love
Rise above and break the cycle, take the control, wake up your soul
Why don't you wake up your soul?

So many of us afraid of it but what are we waiting for
Won't you wake up your soul

I wanna live where the ocean meets the sand and hand in hand we'll be dancing
And I will be where the skyline meets the trees
Do as I please
Waste my days away

Cause all this life that we lose along the way won't fade to gray
Won't be wasted
And all this Love that is living in our souls will overflow
Wash the pain away

I'm ready

I'm ready
For the rain to fall
For the flood to rise
To manifest all the wisdom left by my ancestors

I'm ready
For the rain to fall
For the flood to rise
To take the lead and sow the seeds of our future

I'm ready
For the rain to fall
For the flood to rise
For the sun to shine and realign all our hearts and spirits

I'm ready
For the rain to fall
For the flood to rise
To sing the song of my heart for all who will hear it

I'm ready
