The prize is worth the working for

The prize is worth the waiting for

Waiting for years In the dirt and the tears

Is no compromise

Stand up and fight

For the right

To be someone in others eyes

The popular sin

Of us all giving in

Won't reveal the prize

The prize is worth the working for

The prize is worth the waiting for

Running up hills

And the battle of wills

Used to wear you down

The pressures of life

Used to cut like a knife

At this humble clown

The taunts and the jokes

Of the carnival chokes

On your fearful cries

The popular sound

Of us all giving in

Won't reveal the prize

The prize is worth the working for

The prize is worth the waiting for

You were the proud believer

Oh, don't you want the pride again

The prize

The prize is worth the working for

The prize is worth the waiting for
