Rules of Success

[Verse 1]
Number one is for all you wimps
All you sissies, sassies and sips[?]
Words of a lame [?] philosophical abuse
Number one says:
Strength needs no excuse
Strength needs no excuse

[Chorus]
The rules of success
They're in number four
The rules of success
May open the door
To happiness, social progress
'Cause if your life is a mess
You need to follow rules of success

[Verse 2]
Number two is for those of you historical perspectives
All guilt-mongers and charlatan tractors [?]
OK, so [...] is jointless [?]
But number to said:
The past is pointless
The past is pointless

[Chorus]
Oh, the rules of success
They're in number four
The rules of success
They open the door
To happiness and social progress
You said your life is a mess?
You need to follow the rules of success

[Verse 3]
Number three
[?]
Number three
Speak what you believe
Number three is ego arresting [?]
Just because it happens to you doesn't mean it's interesting
Just because it happens to you doesn't mean it's interesting

[Chorus]
Oh, the rules of success
Well [?] three
For the rules of success
They will open your a free door
To happiness and social progress
You said your soul's egress?
I say your life is a mess
You need to follow the rules of success

[Verse 4]
Number four
Subtle and plastic
Number four
Psycho elastic
We'll return your [?] the shirt's been on [?]
Say: the things that you apologise for are the things that you want
The things that you apologise for are the things that you want

[Chorus]
Oh, the rules of success
They're the one and two and three
Called the rules of success
They will open your a free door
To happiness and social progress
And the soul's egress
I say your life is a mess
You need to follow rules of success

[Coda]
Just shut up, just shut up
Just shut up, just shut up
Just shut up
You poor fools
With this four rules
The world... [?]
Your life will be blessed
If you use the four rules of success
I said your life if will be blessed
If you use the four rules of success
I said your life if will be blessed
If you use the four rules of success
