[G] If you work all day from 9 to 5 and come home feeling half alive
And never see your kids and wife and I've got news for you
There's no point doing what you do unless it's somehow good for you
You've got to get a result or two in the form of something [A] real
Now if you're feeling stressed and not the best and have trouble finding happiness
Well here's one thing I will [G] suggest
Obtain yourself a [B] yield, [A] obtain yourself a yield
Sustain your energy, [Gb] don't drain yourself, [Fm] maintain yourself
[D] Obtain yourself [A] a yield
Now money's not the only yield
You could be making a bigger deal
About what you eat for your next [Gm] meal
You can't run on [G] an empty tank
Ignore the stash of cash in your pocket
Just make a salad from some homegrown rock
You just have to go out the back and pluck it, no need to go to the bank
You've got to work your days for stuff to pay
And not just money but in many ways
It's time you cleared away the haze
And [Gm] obtained yourself [B] a yield, [G] obtained yourself a yield
Of things that you can eat
[Eb] You can produce [Fm] some things of use [Dm] with your own two hands [A] and feet
Obtain yourself a yield right in the here and now
[Eb] Make sure you earn [Fm] something in return, [Dm] here let me show [Cm] you how
[D] [F] Now if you're [Cm] feeling sleepy, [G] then go and [Cm] have a sleep
[Fm] If you feel like [Cm] there's not enough [G] air, then breathe in very deep
If you're thirsty, then you order, get yourself a drink [C] of water
If it's gonna be cold and you're feeling bold, you can shear [Bb] yourself a sheep
[Cm]
[Em] At any given moment, there's everything [G] you need
Just look [Fm] around, it will be found
[F] And obtain yourself a yield, [A] obtain yourself a yield
Take only what you need
Life's pretty fun [Fm] when you're getting some
[Dm] But there's no need [A] for greed
Obtain yourself a yield, and one for others too
[Gb] Make sure you hold [Fm] up your end of the [Gm] deal, what's good for [A] both of you
An easy way to obtain a yield is to give one to your friends
See the good things you [Fm] do come back to you, [G] and the yield just [A] never ends
I said the good things you [Fm] do come back to you, [G] and the yield just [A] never ends
I said the good things you [Fm] do come back to [Gm] you, and the yield just [G] never [Dm] ends
