Текст (слова) песни: Billy Bragg - To Have And To Have Not
Up in the morning and out to school Mother says there`ll be no work next year Qualifications once the Golden Rule Are now just pieces of paper
Just because you`re better than me Doesn`t mean I`m lazy Just because you`re going forwards Doesn`t mean I`m going backwards
If you look the part you`ll get the job In last year`s trousers and your old school shoes The truth is son, it`s a buyer`s market They can afford to pick and choose
Just because you`re better than me Doesn`t mean I`m lazy Just because I dress like this Doesn`t mean I`m a communist
The factories are closing and the army`s full - I don`t know what I`m going to do But I`ve come to see in the Land of the Free There`s only a future for the Chosen Few
Just because you`re better than me Doesn`t mean I`m lazy Just because you`re going forwards Doesn`t mean I`m going backwards
At twenty one you`re on top of the scrapheap At sixteen you were top of the class All they taught you at school Was how to be a good worker The system has failed you, don`t fail yourself
Just because you`re better than me Doesn`t mean I`m lazy Just because you`re going forwards Doesn`t mean I`m going backwards
