lyrics

Red-faced and green with envy
As we drag your wallet through our door.
Please sir, can I have another?
'Cos you stole the breaths I bought for myself before.

Stop me if you've heard this one;
"I am the forgotten son,
I'm the best you'll ever see,
But I'm stuck here on my knees"

I won't settle down,
We're all lost here in this town,
'Cos you're damned if you do and
Damned if you don't.
The poor won't stand alone,
But the rich man's made of stone.

Big dreams behind bedroom doors.
Big love for yourself and your cause.
But big world makes big dreams small,
And small dreams don't matter at all.
So stop, don't say another word.
Your thoughts should be seen, not heard.
But all you wanna do is talk,
Talk, talk, and call it work.

I won't settle down
We're all lost here in this town,
'Cos you're damned if you do and
Damned if you don't.
The poor won't stand alone,
But the rich man's made of stone.

I'm the best you'll ever see,
But I'm stuck here on my knees,
All you wanna do is talk,
Talk, talk and call it work...

...You just settle.

I won't settle down
We're all lost here in this town,
'Cos you're damned if you do and
Damned if you don't.
The poor won't stand alone,
And the rich man's made of stone.
