lyrics

The corporate man
Closed the market file
It was a day like all the rest
Bow to the man shaking hands
While you tell them you’re the best
Walking home with a spring in his step
Feeling nothing but welling pride
The birds are singing in the trees above
And the world is soon to abide

Remember when we were on the level
Straight as the county line
Soon to discover another duck and cover
The silent wave of time
We chase our lives

The keys flew through the looking glass
As he approached his domicile
Item for item thrown out on the grass
You could saw she was hostile
How could you do this to me
I’ve been nothing to you but kind
Oh baby it ain’t got nothing to do with you
It’s got everything to do with time

Remember when we were on the level
Straight as the county line
Soon to discover another duck and cover
The silent web of time

We chase our lives
Such a waste of time
Back to college for more knowledge
Back to collect for more knowledge
Back to college
You know where to go yeah

Heading down to the quakers hill
To gather my thoughts for a spell
First the pump then the fire
Soon enough all is well
I’ll write a letter to make it better
My darling can’t you see
To hell with Frida pearl and the doctor
You belong with me

Remember when we were on the level
Straight as the county line
Soon to discover another duck and cover
The silent way of time
We chase our lives
Such a waste of time
Back to college for more knowledge
Back to college for more knowledge
Back to college
You know where to go yeah
