Don't waste your time on people going nowhere
Make up your own mind, and you're already half way there
Hesitate, or give a second thought
And you'll be late
Forget what you've been taught

You could have it nice, or complicated
You could pay full price or you could take it
You could improvise and be creative
You've got a lot to give
And you've got a life to live

Don't put it off another minute longer
Don't go all soft, you've gotta be stronger
Don't speculate, 'cause no one ever knows
It's up to fate, and you can't predict the way it goes

You could have it nice, or complicated
You could pay full price or you could take it
You could improvise and be creative
You've got a lot to give
And you've got a life to live

You don't do anything
You won't do anything
You won't say anything that isn't kind, 
Anything that isn't nice

Don't waste your time on people going nowhere
Don't wait in line if you expect to get somewhere
Save your breath, don't wanna hear you stance
It's just a guess and you only have this chance

You could have it nice, or complicated
You could pay full price or you could take it
You could improvise and be creative
You could roll the dice or you could play dead
You could give advice or you could take it.

You could have it all, you can have it all
You can have
Everything you love, everything you love, everything you love
You can have it all, you can have it all
You can have
Everything you love, everything you love, everything you love
You can have it all, you can have it all
You can have
Everything you love, everything you love, everything you love

Reach out and take it
You've got so much to give
And you've got a life to live
