Once there was a man of many means Inherited from someone else's dreams He said "one day I'll plough and sow the seeds If only I could learn to tame the weeds" And every time I get to the end I turn round and start again 'Cos they're coming back Can't take it anymore Can't take it anymore Tell me what is this for, 'cause I just can't wait any longer My heart won't beat any stronger This life is not for me So off he went and bought some new machines And chemicals to subjugate the weeds But now the roots had multiplied and grown And crowded out the seeds that he had sown And underneath the setting sun Now he knew it All we saw was toil to come And no way through And every time I get to the end I turn round and start again 'Cos they're coming back Can't take it anymore Can't take it anymore Tell me what is this for, 'cause I just can't wait any longer My heart won't beat any stronger This life is not for me Live, love, laugh, hope, sow, grow Live, love, laugh, hope, sow, grow Live, love, laugh, hope, sow, grow But every time I get to the end I turn round and start again 'Cos they're coming back Can't take it anymore Can't take it anymore Tell me what is this for, 'cause I just can't wait any longer My heart won't beat any stronger This life is not for me This life is not for me
