Hurt Makes Life Right
Before it makes life right good
Why can't we skip the riff
And just live like we should.
We get all kinds of advice
To do the correct thing
But why it has to hurt first
Like an unsociable bee sting.
Parents give instructions
On what is sincerely good for you
But it just feel so good
When you do what you should'nt do.
Castor Oil was an example
It does the body good
But it taste so awfully bad
Before you feel like you should.
I say lets wise up
And skip the heartache and pain
Let's boycott the ways of life
Just get the good and skip the rain.
Lets hit Life where it hurts
Since Hurt Makes Life Right
Lets do the exceptionally best we can
Without the fuss and fight.
