Lyrics

[00:01.97] What do you desire?
[00:03.56] What makes you itch?
[00:06.04] What sort of a situation would you like?
[00:11.56] Let's suppose—I do this often in vocational guidance of students.
[00:16.45] They come to me and say,
[00:20.61] "Well uh,we're getting out of college
[00:20.82] and we haven't the faintest idea what we want to do."
[00:24.57] So I always ask the question:
[00:27.07] "What would you like to do if moeny were no object?
[00:32.27] What well,how would you really enjoy spending your life?"
[00:36.54] Well,it's so amazing as the the result of our kind of educational system,
[00:39.91] crowds of students say,
[00:41.50] "Well,we'd like to be painters,we'd like to be poets,we'd like to be writers."
[00:45.79] But as everybody knows you can't earn any money that way!
[00:48.07] Another person says,"Well,we'd like to an out-of-door's life and ride horses."
[00:52.43] I said,"Do you want to teach in riding school?"
[00:56.28] Uh...let's go through with it.What do you want to do?
[01:00.04] When we finally got down to something which the individual says he really wants to do,
[01:04.20] I will say to him,"You do that!And forget the money!"
[01:12.04] Uh...Because if you say that getting the money is the most important thing.
[01:17.41] you will spend your life completely wasting your time.
[01:21.93] You 'll be doing things you don't like doing,
[01:23.75] in order to go on living that is to go on doing things you don't like doing,
[01:27.76] which is STUPID!
[01:30.91] Better to have a short life that is full of what you like doing
[01:34.90] than a long life spent in the miserable way!
[01:42.33]
[01:42.58] What If money was no object
[01:45.02] It would be funny there'd be no projects ,
[01:46.96] scouts no longer looking for prospects ,
[01:49.16] hookers no longer looking for hot sex,
[01:53.50] no colleges ,still organized learning ,
[01:55.18] but comprised of only for what you have a yearning ,
[01:57.46] no loans to default on ,
[01:59.26] only form we taking is vultron ,
[02:01.24] defending the very earth that we walk on ,
[02:03.38] claiming you have a heart ,
[02:04.73] but the pulse gone ,
[02:05.74] replaced by a cold coin no more non profit groups ,
[02:08.68] or mercenary troops ,
[02:11.62] cause we'd all be doing what we love to do ,
[02:13.69] and that's what we love to have done to ourselves ,
[02:15.87] and by a bullet no one want's to get penetrated ,
[02:18.19] and by a government wants to get incarcerated ,
[02:20.72] but maybe my thoughts is jaded ,
[02:22.54] tragedy rich is the only thought to determine whether or not you made it
[02:26.06] Maybe because the stars have faded ,
[02:27.94] ever the get that feeling that you should know ,
[02:30.18] or that your on the Truman show ,
[02:32.40] sad life inside of a cubicle ,
[02:34.48] when you have a talent that's unusual,
[02:36.53] dreams are the oil
[02:37.89] Yet The flame of the greed will destroy you
[02:40.07] we must not let it (3X )
[02:45.82] dreams are the oil
[02:46.85] Yet The flame of the greed will destroy you
[02:48.12] we must not let it (3X )
[02:54.03] dreams are the oil
[02:55.13] Yet The flame of the greed will destroy you
[02:56.16] we must not let it (3X )
[03:02.10] dreams are the oil
[03:03.20] Yet The flame of the greed will destroy you
[03:04.38] we will not let it (3X )
[03:12.39]
[03:41.31] Do wazir gray's matters matter
[03:43.20] through the black white and gray matter
[03:46.20] Be careful of the future you chase after
[03:49.87] Doubt comes, We must not let in
[03:54.08] We got dreams we must let out
[03:56.42] Trapped in trying to get out
[03:58.88] Pray you make the destination when you set out
[04:02.08] Some of us should change attitude
[04:04.43] Map quest your latitude off the avenue
[04:07.37] And some of ya'll would rather school
[04:10.32] I would agree that it's indeed the turn for all our seeds to learn
[04:16.47] Don't let a loan deferred be a dream deferred
[04:20.44] And pass up on ya'll goals in stead of one timing
[04:23.51] Open up the blinds on your eyes and let the sun shine in
[04:27.49] Let freedom ring louder than a blood diamond
[04:30.91] Dream are the oil, fuel for the fire
[04:34.50] Fire up the engine and use the new tires
[04:37.73] We know you work hard at times you too tired
[04:40.71] And get no credit
[04:43.32] but you not allowed to be sleepy
[04:45.03] fighting for dreams, the urge to quit seems easy
[04:48.53] and it could break you if it ever overtakes you
[04:52.67] but don't let it， don't let it
[04:55.09]
[04:56.61] And after all,if you do really like what you're doing,
[04:57.92] it doesn't matter what it is.
[04:59.41] You can't eventually turn it…
[05:00.98] uh you could eventually become a master of launch.
[05:03.54] The only way to become a master of something is to be really "WITH IT"!
[05:07.23] And then you'll be able to get a good fee for whatever it is.
[05:11.21] So you don't worry too much that everybody's…
[05:14.64] somebody's interested in everything.
[05:17.25] Anything you can be interested in,
[05:18.88] you'll find out very soon.
[05:21.02] But it's absolutely stupid to spend your time doing things you don't like,
[05:24.80] in order to go on spending things you don't like,
[05:27.00] doing things you don't like,
[05:28.77] and to teach your children to follow in the same track.
[05:32.07] Here what we're doing is what we're bringing up children
[05:36.16] and educating them to live the same sort of lives we're living,
[05:39.71] in order that that would…
[05:41.06] they may justify themselves
[05:42.80] and find satisfaction in life by bringing up their children to bring up their children to do the same thing.
[05:47.63] So it's all wretch and no vomit.
[05:49.96] It never gets there!
[05:54.31] And so therefore,
[05:56.96] it's so important to consider this question:
[05:59.54] "What do I desire?"
