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
Just Because You're Better Than Me Does not mean I'm lazy
Just Because I dress like this
Does not mean I'm a Communist
I do not 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
Doesn't mean I'm lazy
Just because you're going forwards
Doesn't mean I'm going backwards
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
A NEW ENGLAND
I was twenty one years when I wrote this song
People ask when will you grow up to be a man
But all the girls I loved at school
are already pushing prams
Then I loved you as I love you still
They put you on the pill
I do not feel bad about Letting You Go
I just feel sad about Letting you know
;
I do not want to change t
