My friend, you`re gonna lose
I don`t understand the paths you choose
It`s your life, but you know as well as I
You can`t fill an empty plate by piling on the spice
You can`t fill an empty plate by piling on the spice
My friend, take a look inside
Look at the person who resides
How long before you get your fill?
Before you realize you can`t medicate away all all your ills?
Before you realize you can`t medicate away all all your ills?
CHORUS:
My friend, look at those things you do
The only one you fool is you
It`s your life and you can toss the dice
but you can`t fill an empty plate by piling on the spice
You can`t fill an empty plate by piling on the spice
CHORUS:
That`s why I don`t even try
That`s why I don`t even try
