HEY MISTER — текст песни (The Jam)

Because it`s real you think it`s a joke
Because it`s on your doorstep you have to have a poke
At someone
It`s only a cliche because it`s all true
Time after time it happens through and through
To a new generation

You`re just so smug in your elected seat
You`ve got your papers sorted out but you can`t find your feet
Well, I`m not surprised

Hey mister with your head in the clouds
You can`t see further than the shillings and pounds
The things that you say don`t mean nothing anymore
You have no control they`ve broken down all the doors
And the only way that you`ll fix them up
Is another war

If you think I`m gonna die in a financial war
You`ve got another thing coming and
And what`s more there`s lots like me

You juggle lives around with the stroke of a pen
But we`ve paid to see that move and now we won`t pay again
The cost is too high

Hey mister your smiles been erased
You can`t understand why we`re losing face
Perhaps it`s the promises that you never kept
"Never had it so good"
Well do you want a bet?
