Lyrics for The Goin' Gets Tough from the Getgo

Smack dab in the middle of a situation overlooked by fools Tables turned, lessons learned, you get burned for playing by the rules Time is lost, that's the cost, oh brother, you get shit on the end Scrape for a dollar, you'll die smilin', learnin' the same lessons once again The goin' gets tough from the getgo go man go Oh brother, not another motherfucker Gotta go now (Right dude? That's right!) The goin' gets tough from the getgo go man go Oh brother, not another motherfucker Gotta go now (Isn't that right, dude? That's right, Gener, so right) The goin' gets tough from the getgo go man go Oh brother, not another motherfucker Gotta go now (Isn't that right, Gener? Tell me, tell me the truth You're right, tell me again) The goin' gets tough from the getgo go man go Oh brother, not another motherfucker Gotta go now (oh, check it out) The goin' gets tough from the getgo go man go Oh brother, not another motherfucker The goin' gets tough from the getgo go man go Oh brother, oh, take it Smack dab in the middle of a situation overlooked by fools Tables turned, lessons learned, you get burned for playing by the rules (You know that happens, Gener! And I know!) Time is lost, that's the cost, oh brother, you get shit on the end Scrape for a dollar, you'll die smilin', learnin' the same lessons once again The goin' gets tough from the getgo go man go Oh brother, not another motherfucker Gotta go now (Once again) The goin' gets tough from the getgo go man go Oh brother, not another motherfucker Gotta go now I think it's over now, Gener! (Gotta go now) Oh God!
