    Story Behind the Song
    A comparison between father and son differing attitudes and the joy of avoiding working yourself into an early grave.

    Written in central France in the summer of '99 and recorded over a period of 18 months in Sweden with about a million takes. We worked on 17 other songs at the same time.

    Lyrics
    Rest & relaxation

    I've been around almost long enough
    To know a thing ot two about some stuff
    But all I get to hear
    Is when are you going to grow up?

    Well to be frank I've little interest
    I think I know now what suits me best
    I'll fix the big things
    And the devil can take the rest

    Rest and relaxation
    Very good for the soul
    Just work and deprivation
    Will leave a gaping hole

    I simply don't want to be like my dad
    I don't have the same ambitions he had
    And those war children
    Had a different view of life

    He was what they call a family man
    It was not so much a family more of a clan
    But that's gone the way
    Of prehistoric man

    Everybody needs some room
    Just to be a little mad
    And if it spills into the home
    That is surely not all bad
