I like the "no regrets" part.!!!"Fuck it all and fuckin' no regrets."
-Metallica, "Damage Incorporated"
Is this advice?"A buck knife, a saw blade, a lead pipe, a twelve gauge
Could've done him in, could've put him by
A buck knife, a saw blade, a lead pipe, a twelve gauge
I could've deep-sixed him, wouldn't bat an eye"
"Deep Six", Big Black

Caedite eos. Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius."Fuck it all and fuckin' no regrets."

Socialist music, I think we can see some flaws here.Alright, how about this then?
Proletarians don't accept their lies my friends, they owe you more than they can give you
They owe you everything, the lands, the mines, the rivers, the hills, the factories and mills
They owe you happiness and life
Take what you can get, but don't take their lies
Think of your class
Remember your strength
For you, for you the cents
For you, for you the dollars
For you, for you the cent
For you, for you the dollar!
Fight!
"Ballad of the Welfare System", Hans Eisler/Kurt Tucholsky

It's not going to earn any music awards.Who's "we"?
(Also, it's "they owe you more than they give you", not "they owe you more than they can give you." Obviously. Not my transcription.)
Not my bag either but each to his own. I am trying to find specific advice in tracks because a lot of great songs are a narrative. I have a few though.Socialist music, I think we can see some flaws here.
Ok. The reply was a bit on the dark side!@ Pinball
I said "if"--also, I would be concerned about the making a mess part.
