Don't Try So Hard Lyrics
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
Amd 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 bloddy 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 it 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
A beautiful song from the Innuendo album.
It's about warning people to do their best, but not kill themselves in the process............
Yeah...it's like saying if you concentrate too hard on something you won't be able to do it...nice song :)
Wow a great song with a message to the listener. It says to appreciate the simple things and not to take life too seriously. Another Queen classic.
This is one of the best songs on the album......even more amazing when you get to "Oh what a beautiful world'......something special about it.
One of Freddies finest vocal performances indeed. I agree with mercury_girl86 .
its a nother queen song that just makes you think about situations, i mean a lot of people rate dont stop me now as a feel good song and it is amazing but there forgetting about the others, like this and party and yes i realise they wernt singles but they deserve a little recognistion. this is a wonderful song with a shockingly great guitar solo and chorus. xxx
Best song on innuendo.has a very simple meaning.if you try too hard and try to live by all the hard rules you are only going to fail
