We're like sugarcane
We get caned again and again
And it tastes so sweet
Like a newborn baby's feet
It's the way to be
We like getting things for free
But we all know that we have to work
So who are you to stand and shirk?
We're like sugarcane
It goes straight to your brain
And it's never quite as real
As the numbness you can't feel
It's the way my life has gone
So many mistakes I kept getting it wrong
But we all know you have to try
You can't give up or you might as well die
We get caned again and again
And it tastes so sweet
Like a newborn baby's feet
It's the way to be
We like getting things for free
But we all know that we have to work
So who are you to stand and shirk?
We're like sugarcane
It goes straight to your brain
And it's never quite as real
As the numbness you can't feel
It's the way my life has gone
So many mistakes I kept getting it wrong
But we all know you have to try
You can't give up or you might as well die
