TIGHTEN UP
--------------------------------------------------------

Maybe I might be your friend
Maybe you might be my friend
I always see you on a different road
All the hours you've wasted you'll never know

Hear the grasshoppers swarming
They fill the sky with no warning
There is no custom cavalcade
I meant what I said though it
wasn't what I meant to say

 [chorus]
 Tighten up, don't spread yourself
 Tighten up, don't spread yourself
 Tighten up, don't spread yourself so thin

You take advantage of this one
You take advantage of that one
All the time living dumb to the fact
You either lighten your load kid or strengthen your back

Don't deny the feeling
You're personality stealing
It ain't so easy being put on the spot
You either take what you need or give what ya got...hey

 [repeat chorus]

[bridge]
A good fight or bad compromise?
You should be more decisive
More decisive next time...hey

You go to sleep on the west coast
Wake in the heat on the east coast
Of all I'm thinking and all I'm gonna do
The best advice for you is

Tighten up, don't spread yourself
Tighten up, don't spread yourself
Tighten up, don't spread yourself so thin

 [repeat chorus]

Tighten up...
