The Golden Rule. © Jimi Hocking

Little Isabelle, she wanna’ shake something down
She got some brand new toys, she wanna show em’ around
And someone told me once a little ain’t enough
You’re gonna need a lot more if the going gets tough

Still you’re better off alive than you would be dead
So keep your shoes on your feet and keep your hat on your head

That boy from East St Kilda, he’s always driving too fast
He’s always in a race, he never wanna come last
Don’t wanna be the one to say you gotta slow down
But if you want some trouble man there’s plenty around

Still you’re better off alive than you would be dead
So keep your shoes on your feet and keep your hat on your head

So if you’re going crazy and you’re climbing the walls
You know the higher you climb, the harder you fall
You got some problems at home, a little trouble at work
Because your partner is a martyr and the boss is a jerk

Still you’re better off alive than you would be dead
So keep your shoes on your feet and keep your hat on your head

So keep your shoes on your feet
And keep your hat on your head
Just keep your shoes on your feet
And keep your hat on your head
