Don't expect a miracle to happen while you sleep

It's too bad now, if you're sad now,

You have to get up on your feet



You've got to give what you take

And baby take what you get

I'm gonna give what I take

And baby take what I get



Don't sit around pining for love that you can't have

You have to get up and with a little good luck

Now it won't seem half as bad



You've got to give what you take

And baby take what you get

I'm gonna give what I take

And baby take what I get



Don't you take offence now to the things that I just said

You'll start to smile if you think for a while

You can work it all out in your head



You've got to give what you take

And baby take what you get

I'm gonna give what I take

And baby take what I get
