Mr. Brown
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mr Brown, you promised us the earth
So you can't let us down
So for what it's worth
Mr Brown
It's just the last one there
Said he didn't think it very fair
It's up to you to turn it round
So come on Mr Brown, Mr Brown
Mr Brown, come on, come on now Mr Brown
And when the whole world's screaming, scheming, cheating
Mr Brown won't care
He won't be lying, stealing, dealing, deceiving
Mr Brown's most fair
But now he's not there
Because it's you who wears the crown
But one day and it won't be fair
They will come and cut you down, Mr Brown
And we all know it's true
There's no-one who could follow you
There's no-one who can touch you
And one day we'll be after you Mr Brown
And when the whole world's screaming, scheming, cheating
Mr Brown won't care
He won't be lying, stealing, dealing, deceiving
Mr Brown's most fair
Now Mr Brown, you promised us the earth
So you can't let us down
So for what it's worth
Mr Brown Mr Brown, come on, come on
Mr Brown yeah
