Don't Try So Hard

If you're searching out for something - 
Don't try so hard 
If you're feeling kinda nothing - 
Don't try so hard 
When your problems seem like mountains 
You feel the need to find some answers 
You can leave them for another day 
Don't try so hard 
But if you fall and take a tumble - 
It won't be far 
If you fail you mustn't grumble - 
Thank your lucky stars 
Just savour every mouthful 
And treasure every moment 
When the storms are raging round you 
Stay right where you are 
Don't try so hard 
Oooh don't take it all to heart 
It's only fools they make these rules 
Don't try so hard 
One day you'll be a sergeant major 
Oh you'll be so proud 
Screaming out your bloody orders 
Hey but not too loud 
Polish all your shiny buttons 
Dressed as lamb instead of mutton 
But you never had to try 
To stand out from the crowd 
Oh what a beautiful world 
Is this the life for me 
Oh what a beautiful world 
It's the simple life for me 
Oh don't try so hard 
Oh don't take it all to heart 
It's only fools - they make these rules 
Don't try so hard 
Don't try so hard
