Nice work if you can get it And you can get it if you try Just imagine someone Waiting at the cottage door Where two hearts become one Who could ask for anything more? Loving one who loves you And then taking that vow And if you get it, won't you tell me

I'm just trying to get it right And in spite of all I should've done I was not mad at you I was not trying to tear you down The words that I could've used I was too scared to say out loud If I cannot break your fall I'll pick you up right off the ground

The way things are going They're going to crucify me Christ you know it ain't easy You know how hard it can be The newspapers said Standing in the dock at Southampton Trying to get to Holland or France The man in the mac said You've got to go back

And you get what you deserve I don't wanna be king I just wanna sing a love song Pretend there's nothing wrong You can sing along with me I don't wanna be queen Just trying to keep my t-shirt clean There's one thing I have learned If it gets much better

No kind of life! this is no kind of life! (I've got to get out!) It's no kind of life! this is no kind of life! (You can't blame me!) My freedom is best Whole country's on house arrest And everyone's a suspect You can't feel the flow because you died

You can get it if you really want But you must try, try and try, try and try You'll succeed at last You'll succeed at last, mmh, yeah Persecution you must fear Win or lose you're about to get your share Got your mind set on a dream You can get it though

Nice work if you can get it And you can get it if you try Just imagine someone Where two hearts become one Who could ask for anything more? Loving one who loves you And then taking that vow And if you get it Won't you tell me how?

Ain't it the life Try living a lie and kicking out The same old guise Wasting time Can you save me from The borrowed cloud I'm on All you've gotta do is try Pray you're just getting by

Can't I get back my lonely life California waiting Every little thing's gotta be just right While you're tryin' to save me Little Mona Lisa laying by my side "Crimson and Clover" pullin' overtime I feel too close to be losin' touch

Nice work if you can get it And you can get it if you try Just imagine someone Where two hearts become one Who could ask for anything more? Loving one who loves you And then taking that vow And if you get it Won't you tell me how?
