Right On Lyrics - Pain

Remember Hannibal's march? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

Leaving elephant footprints and leading his boys across the Alps 

I think I know how he felt, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

Not just because it was tough, But the way his country eventually sold him out 

I think of what must have been his immense frustration. 

There in a land far away with the prize so close he could almost taste it 

Only to hear his leaders say 

"Way to go! You did it! Even though you didn't really do it, though, 

Everybody here is feelin' right on!" (so I'll) 

Drink a little, take a break, a break I didn't really need, 

But after that I know I'm goin' right on 

Remember the second World War? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 

A certain general George, he got in trouble for trying way too hard, 

I think I know how he felt, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

I know it sounds crazy but I tend to get too wrapped up in work 

But me and Patton seem to share that immense frustration 

(it's megalomaniacal I know) 

Wanting something so bad you can almost taste it 

And dragged down by the voices from below (they say) 

"Way to go! You're done! You've gone as far as you will ever go! 

Everybody here is feelin' right on!" 

So I'll drink a little, take a break, a break I didn't really need 

But after that I know I'm going right on! 

I know that I'm not alone 

The treasure of my heart is calling on the telephone 

I've got my friends around me, they don't seem to hate me yet 

My family lends me cash and they're not strict about the debt 

And the world is a place where the most 

Important thing you can learn is this: 

To submit to the will of the man upstairs 

And don't get too wrapped up in yourself 

And so I guess this is kind of an amateur prayer 

For people trying to find their own way, 

Or a request for strength and a reminder to resist 

What the well-meaning naysayers say when they say 

"Way to go! You did it! Even though you didn't do it though! 

Everybody here is feelin' right on!" 

So I'll drink a little, take a break, a break I didn't really need. 

After that I know I'm going right on! 

"Way to go! You're done! You've gone as far as you will ever go! 

Everybody here is feelin' right on!" 

So I'll drink a little, take a break, a break I didn't really need. 

But after that I know I'm going right on! 

Right on!
