Song #153: Moral of the Story- George Watsky
From the album Cardboard Castles, released March 12, 2013
"And the moral of the story is/ and the moral of the story/ work/ 'till your arms fall off/ 'till your abs get hard/ 'till your bone's all soft/ and the moral of the story is/ work/ 'till your hands go numb/ and they cramp and the fans in the stands go home/ I write 'till my fingers look like a bouquet of roses/ you gotta' bring yourself flowers now with show biz/ focus it's quiet coyote come on let's go kids/ everybody get together with a study buddy and then talk about the fuck that I don't give/ because it's so big/ and explosive/ but a lotta' people don't live/ they don't ever get a motive/ if you got a goal you gotta' hold on to what hope is/ if I didn't have it I would ask you where the rope is/ work is my church so the studio's the closest/ I spit it sick until my cootie flow's the grossest/ don't be so pissed/ just be focused on your own shit...
/work until I'm black and yellow black and yellow worker bee/ I just work until I'm black and blue and burgundy/ burgundy/ work until I earn that rich mahogany/ honestly/ can't you tell I'm working bitch don't bother me/ show some modesty/ if you're watching me/ bitch is anybody in my way it's not misogyny/ but if you're blockin' me I will soon defeat you/ I will build a bridge above you or I'll tunnel underneath you/ I will eat you and excrete you and I'll feed you to the flowers/ if I need to I'll go through you and absorb your fucking powers/ I put hour after hour let's be crystal clear/ I'm gonna' get there if it takes a day or fifty years/ I'll fingerbang my fears/ I'll fucking punch a dragon/ even with the Himalayas in my way it's gonna' happen/ because waiting doesn't work/ and praying may not come through/ and hoping doesn't work/ so I will be the one to/ work"
