I try to get my foot on the ladder
|
try climbing up the greasy pole
|
one step forward, ten steps backwards
|
retrograde rock 'n' roll
|
|
It's so hard living on the breadline
|
harder still if you're stuck below
|
lose your mind in the daily grind
|
oh what a way to go
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Someone else has all our money
|
someone else is cashing in
|
honesty's no policy
|
for hangers on and middle men
|
|
So keep your mouth shut and just listen
|
everybody's standing still
|
you telephone your words of wisdom
|
but words won't pay my bills
|
|
You got where you are because of me
|
I'll get there inspite of you
|
'though I have to work ten times harder
|
to be told I'm half as good
|
