I Don't Know
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.
How long is gonna take do you know - I don't know
How you gonna stop the people out on the make - I don't know
How you gonna stop outsiders mixing with you - I don't know
Where you gonna march to next showing people you blues - I don't know
POOR MISTREATED KIDS WITH THEIR GOVERNMENTS GRANTS
WEARING THREADBARE SHIRTS AND FADED PANTS
POOR MISTREATED KIDS WITH THEIR WORN-OUT SHOES
ALWAYS MARCHING WHINING OUT THEIR BLUES...I DON'T KNOW
Are you making sure you're getting everything cheap - I don't know
Some og you march and the others follow like sheep - I don't know
You're taking a communist path but it wont last long - I don't know
When you get a well paid job you'll sing a different song - I don't know
They want it easy right form the start don't you! - I don't know
Count themselves as a higher race apart - I don't know
You're getting more than the normal kids with their fees - I don't know
But you still ask for more on your bended knees - I don't know
