When The Going Gets Tough


Way out in the jungle things aren't bright
Looks like the natives are preparing to fight
Sharpen their spears and rapping their shields
It's time for the white man to take to the fields

You know the saying folks

But just a minute what's caused all the fuss?
Police have blown in and made a big bust
All that coca chewing and all that weed
They've scooped the lot, a dastardly deed

When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going

So what's the score? Now it's lost
An empty plane, who'll cover the cost?
Fake a deal with the FBI
Flying guns, they'll turn a blind eye

You know the saying folks:

When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going

Who's gonna pay for all this?
No more coca chewing
No more smoking that weed
What are we gonna do?
We're all gonna turn into seeds
Blown off into space
And what can we do?
No one will save the Human Race

When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going
