The Hard Way (Live) - The Kinks

Written by：Raymond Douglas Davies

Producer：Raymond Douglas Davies

Boys like you were born to waste

You never listen to a word I say

And if you think you're here to mess around

You're making a big mistake

Cause you're gonna find out the hard way

You gonna find out the hard way

No matter what I do or say

You're much too dumb to educate

One day life's going to turn around and slap you in the face

Then you're gonna find out the hard way

You'll take the hard way

Well you'll do it your way and I'll do it my way

And we'll see who's the one to survive

You'll find that with no foundation

Or qualifications

There's no way that you can get by

No no way you can get by

Why don't you take the easy way

Why don't you co-operate

Don't just sit there and vegetate

Do you want to end up illiterate

You think that life's a vacation

And you've no inclination

To dust away the cobwebs of your mind

Now it's time for confrontation

And I'm tired of being patient

So I've got to be cruel to be kind

You've got to be cruel to be kind

I'm wasting my vocation teaching you to write neat

When you're only fit to sweep the streets

Your intellect is such

That it requires a killer's touch

So I'm going to play it your way

We'll take the hard way

Going to take the hard way

You can take the hard way

Gonna take the hard way

Gonna take the hard way
