lyrics

If it doesn't come bursting out of you in spite of everything,
don't do it.

Unless it comes unasked out of your heart and your mind and your mouth
and your gut,
don't do it

if you have to sit for hours
staring at your computer screen
don’t do it.

if you’re doing it for money or fame,
don’t do it.

if you’re doing it because you want
women in your bed,
don’t do it.

If you have to site there and
rewrite it again and agina,
don't do it

If it's hard work just thinking about doing it,
don't do it

If you have to wait for it to roar out of you,
then wait patiently
If it never does roar out of you,
do something else.
