To Have And To Have Not

Lyrics

Get up in the morning and out to school
 Mother says there 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
 Doesn't mean I'm going backwards
 ♪
 Well, if you look the part well then you'll get the job
 In last year's trousers and your oldschool shoes
 The truth is, son, it's a buyer's market
 They can afford to pick and choose
 Just because you're better than me
 Doesn't mean I'm lazy
 Just because that I dress like this
 Doesn't mean I'm a communist
 ♪
 Well, the factories are closing and the army's full
 I don't know what I'm going to do
 But I've come to see in the land of the free
 There's only room for a chosen few
 Just because you're better than me
 Doesn't mean I'm lazy
 Just because you're going forwards
 Doesn't mean I'm going backwards
 ♪
 Well, at 21 you're a top of the scrap heap
 At 16 you were top of your class
 Well, I dropped outta high school in Campbell, California
 Got a guitar and I never looked back
 Just because you're better than me
 Doesn't mean I'm lazy
 Just because that I dress like this
 Doesn't mean I'm a communist
 Yeah
 ♪
 Woo!
