Strum
D-DU-UDU
As  soon as I got on the horse, I forgot about the math.
Forgot  about the odds against an adolescent  standing up to all of Owen's  wrath.
The  heat of prairie summer, impossible to take.
I  grab the hem and lift the fabric  over my sweet head.
I  know what you're looking for, and
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
Government  rule established by a dazzling light show.
A  hegemony armoured with a thousand-watt  head and seven inches of echo.
I  keep up my velocity, my spurs are in her sides.
I  don't know what I'm doing, and  it is the only way.
Toward  the range I'll ride, singing,
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
"I  am overrated," said the sculptress to the sea.
"I've  been praised for all the ways the marble  leaves the man,
 And I was wrong to  try and free him."
And  as for me, I am a vector, I am muscle, I am bone.
The  sun upon my shoulders and the horse between  my legs,
This  is all I know.
My  senses are bedazzled by the parallax of the road.
I  concentrate to keep  contained the overflow.
My  knuckles grip so tightly, my fingers start to bleed.
If  what I have is  what you need,
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
I'm  never gonna give it to you.
