Give and Take Two
Socratic

Parents, it's not enough to keep your kids at a steady pace
You tied their shoes from birth
But can't follow them to this place
Where the more drugs you have, the more friends you make
The more you give, the more they like to take
Schooling's never good
You're told you'll make so many friends you never thought you would
School work takes up all your time
The kids back home say you're shady now
You never care enough to call

I live like this every day
The more drugs I have, the more friends I make
The more I give, the more they like to take
I don't want to realize
The kids back home say I'm shady now
I never care enough to call

Jump start your career
What will you wear?
When will you wake?
How much bullshit from your boss will you take?
Get measured by your bank account
I'm finding out that's all that counts
I won't help your finances
No big house, no nice car
Just a credit card that bought a cell phone
Some Wendy's on your way home
You're fatter than you were last year
They're talking but it's hard to hear them now

I live like this every day
The more drugs I have, the more friends I make
The more I give, the more they like to take
I don't want to realize
The kids back home say I'm shady now
I never care enough to call

Come visit me, lonely ghost
Tell me that I should love my life and my wife
Show me the world without me
Tell me to return to it better than I was before
Singing carols from door to door
Can I see her if I don't talk about us anymore?
No, I won't talk about it anymore
I swear I won't talk about the other boy
The kids back home, they seem shady now
They never cared enough to call
