It’s hard <br />For a young upstart to compete with the old guard <br />For the old guard guards the old ways of doing business <br />With old business partners who also make it hard <br />For the young upstart <br /> <br />For they guard the old ways of guarding the business <br />From the brash and rash and flash of upstarts <br />But the old guard was also young at some age <br />Back when they fought the old guards of their days <br /> <br />And they too were young upstarts looking for change <br />Things for them seemed just as hard <br />And they placed each bet on each losing card <br />But before they knew it they were playing the old games <br />With the young upstarts who were looking for change<br /><br />P.R.
