Joe Jackson - Go for It Lyrics

Everybody's wasting time
Everybody stands in line

Think of Babe Ruth
And you think of hot dogs and beer
But if he could hit a home run, so could you
And your weight is just nowhere near
Am I making myself quite clear?

Is that the best you can do?
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
If that's the best you can do
Get out of my place, take anyone's place
Come last in the race but
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it

The clock is ticking on the wall
Everybody has to take a fall

Think of Ray Charles
And you think of sunglasses at night
But if he can play piano, so can you
And you can tell black from white
Can you tell me that I'm not right?

Is that the best you can do?
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
If that's the best you can do
Get out of my life, be anyone's life
And do what you like but
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it

Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it

Think of Babe Ruth
And you think of hot dogs and beer
But if he could hit a home run, so could you
And your weight is just nowhere near
Am I making myself quite clear?

Is that the best you can do?
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
If that's the best you can do
Get out of your shell, be anyone's pal
Do bad or do well but
Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it
