The Living End – Save The Day lyrics

So here I come to save the day
A regular Joe now on parade
They say it's the only way, but they
They only want it when it's there

So here I come to save the day
The future's here and the past is yesterday
They say it's the only way they say
They only want it when it's there
When it's there

We're not going on a holiday
We do a lot of work and we don't get paid
Stand up don't walk away
Take your pride and swallow, swallow
Take your pride and swallow, swallow

Life's full of much unwanted waste
Crime pays and the junkies walk away
But for husband and the good son
They speak I'll at ease but they dare not run
They dare not run

We're not going on a holiday
We do a lot of work and we don't get paid
Stand up don't walk away
Take your pride and swallow, swallow
Take your pride and swallow, swallow

We're not going on a holiday
We do a lot of work and we don't get paid
Stand up don't walk away
Take your pride and swallow, swallow
(We're not going on a holiday, hey)
Take your pride and swallow, swallow
(Stand up don't walk away, hey)
Take your pride and swallow, swallow
(We're not going on a holiday, hey)
Take your pride and swallow, swallow
(Stand up don't walk away, hey)
Take your pride and die
