How to Be Successful (Tsatsamis rmx) Songtext
von Lynks

A lesson
In how to be successful
To get a good profession
With financial protection
Avoid the next recession
And get your parents blessing
And that nice flat in Hendon
Make it your new obsession

First
Go to uni
And then you write a CV
Apply for jobs in TV
Media and advertising
And always emphasizing
Your love for filing
Modernizing and enterprising
Your in luck, son
Turns out we′re hiring


Oh!
80.96 years on average
A time you've got to manage
Before it goes
Oh!
And on with the show

Now meet a girl
And she′s your whole world
So buy her a pearl
Necklace and then propose
And then have a kid
And second and then a third
Two boys and a girl
Ruby, Alex, and Curt

Now Ruby goes to uni
Then Alex goes to uni
Then Curt does an art foundation
And then goes to uni
Now Ruby's feeling broody
Meets a boy and gets producing
A nice set of grandchildren
Robbie, Bethan, and Susan


Oh!
80.96 years on average
Your life
It's gone
It′s vanished
What can you show?
From years and years and years ago?

Your life feels wasted
Your kids? Vacated
Your family home
You should have faced it years and years ago
Cause now it′s the end of the show

So my lesson?
On how to be successful?
It won't get a mention
When you′re old and grey and mental
Forget about professions
Forgot the flat in Hendon
Cause when you're on your deathbed
Give it a fuck if you′re successful
