Don’t Try So Hard Songtext / Lyric

If you're searching out for something

Don't try so hard

If you're feeling kind of nothing

Don't try so hard

When your problems seem like mountains

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 ranging round you

Stay right where you are






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



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

This is the life for me

Oh, what a beautiful world

Is 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
