What You Do with What You've Got - Eddi Reader

作词:Si Kahn/Eddi Reader

作曲:Si Kahn/Eddi Reader

You must know someone like him

Who was tall and strong and lean

With a body like a greyhound

And a mind so sharp and keen

But his heart just like a laurel

Grew twisted round itself

Till almost everything he did

Brought pain to someone else

It s not just what you re born with

It s what you choose to bear

It s not how big your share is

It s how much you can share

It s not the fights you dreamed of

It s those you really fought ah-wah

It s not what you ve been given

It s what you do with what you ve got

What s the use of two strong legs

If you only run away

And what s the use of the finest voice

If you ve nothing good to say now ah

What s the use in strength and muscle

If you only push and shove

And what s the use of two good ears

If you can t hear those you love

Oh what s the use of two strong legs

If you only run away

And what s the use of the finest voice

Hah-ee-ah hah-ee-ah

What s the use in strength and muscle

If you only push and shove

And what s the use of two good ears

If you can t hear those you love

Between those who use their neighbours

And those who use the cane

Between those in constant power

And those in constant pain

Between those who run to glory

And those who cannot run

Tell me which ones are the cripples

And which ones touch the sun
