Take What You Got
Original Broadway Cast of Kinky Boots
[HARRY]
Remember the pub where our fathers went
To spend the end of the day?

[CHARLIE]
Remember the yard behind the pub
Where we'd run and play?

[HARRY]
Yeah, well, now the pub is a laundromat

[CHARLIE]
Now the yard is a high-rise flat

[HARRY]
You can't go back
You can't make it last

You've got to take what you've got
Even where your life is in knots
You take aim, take your shot
Sometimes you've gotta rewrite the plot
You've gotta take what you got
[CHARLIE]
You'd always say that one of these days
You'd get out of Northampton town

[HARRY]
You'd always say that you wouldn't stay
No, you wouldn't stick around

[CHARLIE]
Never knew what I wanted before
Now I'm even more unsure

[HARRY]
You can't move on if you're still in the past

You've gotta take what you've got
Even where your life is in knots
You take aim, take your shot
Sometimes you've gotta rewrite the plot
You've gotta take what you got

[CHARLIE]
Everybody's telling me what I need to be
Change with the times, move to London town
Or live out a legacy
Well, maybe this time I'll take a chance
Leap into the vast expanse
Maybe this time I seize my destiny
My destiny
.... yehhh
[HARRY]
If you're on the wrong road, turn back

[CHARLIE]
So, you'll help me out?
Thank you, Harry

Two, three!

[HARRY / CHARLIE]
You've gotta take what you got
Even when your life is in knots
You take aim, take your shot
Sometimes you gotta rewrite the plot

[CHARLIE]
You've gotta take what you got

[HARRY]
You've gotta take what you got
