Fred Astaire Lyrics by Lucky Boys Confusion

Growing Out of It

1998

[Chorus]
You can call it anything you want
The fact remains the same
I never got to be your Fred Astaire
You can lie to yourself and all your friends
Pretend that you don't care
But circumstance gets in the way
[Verse 1]
You've so many opportunities I never had
Don't push so hard
Nothing is ever easy
And this talent that you take for granted
Its a gift from God
Don't pass it up
Nothing is ever easy
Are you ready to work real hard?
Are you tired? It's just the start
Listen to me son I'll take you far
(Take you far)
[Chorus]
You can call it anything you want
The fact remains the same
I never got to be your Fred Astaire
You can lie to yourself and all your friends
Pretend that you don't care
But circumstance gets in the way
[Verse 2]
Heel, toe, heel, toe, side to side, again!
Gonna get it right
Don't push so hard (Push so hard)
Nothing is ever easy
Don't forget your please and thank you's
Don't forget to smile
Don't pass this up (pass this up)
Nothing is ever easy
Are you ready to work real hard?
Are you tired? It's just the start
Listen to me son I'll take you far
(Take you far)
[Chorus]
You can call it anything you want
The fact remains the same
I never got to be your Fred Astaire
You can lie to yourself and all your friends
Pretend that you don't care
But circumstance gets in the way
[Bridge]
They're pushing these children for all the wrong reasons
So far, man you're crushing down their spirits
You're pushing these children for all the wrong reasons
So far, man you're crushing down their spirits
Suffocate, emancipate, turn their backs and walk away
Eventually, eventually
They suffocate, emancipate, turn their backs and walk away
Eventually, eventually
Seeking, seeking, oh
One of these, one of these
Seeking seeking, oh
(Suffocate, emancipate, turn their backs and walk away)
One of these one of these paths
You're wasting time, I call it living
To the world what are you giving
You're wasting time, I call it living
To the world what are you giving
You're wasting time, I call it living
To the world what are you giving
You're wasting time
[Chorus]
You can call it anything you want
The fact remains the same
I never got to be your Fred Astaire
You can lie to yourself and all your friends
Pretend that you don't care
But circumstance gets in the way (Never got to be your Fred Astaire)
'Cause I never got to be your Fred Astaire (Never got to be your Fred Astaire)
No I never got to be your Fred Astaire
[Chorus Out]
You can call it anything you want
The fact remains the same
I never got to be your Fred Astaire
You can lie to yourself and all your friends
Pretend that you don't care
But circumstance gets in the way
