lyrics

So you're out foraging for food
You see some mushrooms, you know what you have to do
But you can't remember if these are the kind
That are even safe to touch
You don't want to let your community down
But you just weren't ready when push came to shove

Well, looking for food doesn't make you a forager
Practice does
Looking for food doesn't make you a forager
Practice does
You gotta practice from sun-up until the sun is sinking
'Til you can identify 'shrooms without thinking
Being there is not enough
What makes you good at foraging?
Practice does!

(spoken)
Practice is really important--isn't that right?
Besides, civilization has collapsed
I mean, what else are you going to do with your time?

So you're far from home, it's getting dark
You need to build a shelter, but you can't remember how to start
Well the temperatures dropping and the light's getting low
And you think you heard a bear
You don't want to let your community down
Maybe you can find a cave somewhere

Well, being alive doesn't make you a survivor
Practice does
Being alive doesn't make you a survivor
Practice does
You gotta practice from sun-up until the sun is sinking
'Til you can build a shelter without even thinking
Being there is not enough
What makes you good at staying alive?
Practice does!

Practicing is great, it can be fun
It's good for you, it's good for me, it's good for everyone
Just find someone to show you how, and then
Do it yourself again and again and again and again and again and again and again

So you caught someone stealing food
You pick up your knife, you know what you have to do
But you suddenly find you don't have the courage
The will to do the deed
You don't want to let your community down
Maybe he'll learn his lesson if you just make him bleed a little
NAH!

Holding a weapon doesn't make you a killer
Practice does
Holding a weapon doesn't make you a killer
Practice does
You gotta practice from sun-up until the sun is sinking
So you can deal the killing blow without thinking
Being armed is not enough
What makes you good at killing thieves?
Practice does!
