| Silver Platter |
| Everybody wants to make it up to Heaven But they don't want to die Everybody wants seven or eleven Without rollin' the dice Just want somethin' for nothin' Buy one, just to get one free Or be the first to take someone's lovin' And not back anything It don't work that way There's a price you have to pay It don't work that way You gotta step up to the plate Can't hit a home run Without being the batter You won't find your gold On a silver platter Everybody wants to win the blue ribbon Without running the race Everybody wants to have a perfect body Without lifting a weight Rather make a million dollars Not the old fashioned way Spend a buck the pick six numbers Now all I have to say It don't work that way There's a price you have to pay It don't work that way You gotta step up to the plate Can't hit a home run Without being the batter You won't find your gold On a silver platter |
