Head Of The Table — текст песни (Joan Armatrading)

Caught this bit of news
From unexpected quarters
You in your close-knit family
Who says what you should be after
Don`t you know what you should be after
Unless you consult the head of the table
The head of the table
He`s stern and strong

Caught this bit of news
From unexpected quarters
Such a close-knit family
Keeps you on the straight and narrow
You find that you`re unable
To do what you want
The head of the table
He`s stern and strong

So run along
Little boy run along
The head of the table would bend
If you`re able to prove that you`re right
And he`s wrong
