Procol Harum - Don’t Get Caught

Life is hard and don't last too long There's no difference Between what is right and wrong I rest my defence When you're young, you grab what you can Make your name around the land But remember all the things you've been taught And never, never get caught Things will always be very tough No time for compassion 'Cause you will never have enough Got to get your ration Middle-aged, you got to jump right in 'Cause the chances are growing thin Just remember the things you've been taught And never, never ever 'Cause when you're young, you gotta grab what you can Make your name around the land But remember all the things you've been taught And never, never ever, get caught Don't get caught, don't get caught Don't get caught Don't get caught, don't get caught Don't get caught There's no way to escape from time A little love helps to mend What's the harm in a tiny crime Before you descend? This is the age to try and relax Have some fun before the axe Just remember the things you've been taught And never, never ever In middle age, you gotta jump right in 'Cause the chances are growing thin Just remember all the things you've been taught And never, never ever, get caught And that is the end of the line Or maybe it's not Just bequeath them some stolen wine Or whatever you've got The things you slipped away without Will make some people jump and shout Just remember the things you've been taught And never, never ever When you're young, you grab what you can Make your name around the land But remember all the things you've been taught And never, never get caught It's the age to try and relax Have some fun before the axe Just remember the things you've been taught And never, never ever, get caught Don't get caught, don't get caught Don't get caught, don't get caught Don't be caught, don't be caught Don't get caught Don't get caught, don't get caught Don't get caught, don't get caught Don't get caught, don't get caught Don't get caught
