lyrics

Sitting on a windy street,
Trying to beg some food to eat
Hoping for some shelter tonight
Standing at the kitchen door
Shadow falling on the floor,
Looking at the warmth and the light

It’s reserved for the guys in the old school ties
For the one who know how to cheat
Who serve you with lies and think you survive
From the crumbs that fall at their feet

Sitting on a gilded chair
Puffing his exquisite hair
Doesn’t care what falls from his lips
Hacking on the country fields
Living off the rents and yields
Laughing with his pals from the sticks

They’re the sons of the folks in their old ermine cloaks
The people who hoard and who treasure
Who dine at the Ritz in the glitter and glitz
And expect you to toil for their pleasure

If life is a game then the rules are obscure
They’re known to a relative few
With handshakes and nods and a pat on the back
They get to the front of the queue
