[00:15.79]They tell you not to worry
[00:18.92]They say they're terribly sorry
[00:21.96]But that's the way it has to be
[00:24.95]For the likes of me
[00:27.67]Just be good and know your station
[00:30.88]Always look on the bright side
[00:33.95]Keep your faith and keep your patience
[00:37.10]Your reward is after you've died
[00:41.02]So don't be told
[00:43.74]Don't be consoled
[00:46.82]Things are so bad
[00:49.78]You can never make do
[00:52.05]And there's always someone better off than you
[00:59.23]They tell you that's your future
[01:02.16]It's all down to human nature
[01:05.38]Simply settle for what you got
[01:08.37]That's destiny and that's your lot
[01:11.22]All of us cannot come first
[01:14.31]Yes what you have is second best
[01:16.98]But it might be a good deal worse
[01:20.67]Third world peasants get even less
[01:23.89]So don't be told
[01:27.33]Don't be consoled
[01:29.48]Things are so bad
[01:33.67]You can never make do
[01:35.85]And there's always someone better off than you
[01:43.71]Do you care that it's not fair
[01:49.85]Is this the way we have to live
[01:55.87]I know I care and I want an equal share
[02:01.84]Even if it means I have to give
[02:09.73]Come on
[02:12.29]The people who are on top
[02:14.80]Say that you should keep your chin up
[02:18.98]And they are keen to show you
[02:21.46]The unhappy ones below you
[02:24.13]But I want no more of that stuff
[02:26.98]That's looking at it upside down
[02:30.02]And the world has got money enough
[02:33.69]For us to make it go around
[02:36.75]So don't be told
[02:40.49]Don't be consoled
[02:44.00]Don't be ruled
[02:46.99]Don't be fooled
[02:48.86]Because things are so bad you can never make do
[02:55.16]And there's always someone better off than you
[03:02.45]
