Songtexte Place In Life - The Specials

Now Jack and Jill went up the hill
To join the Labour right
They couldn't pay the water bills
But that was alright

They thought they'd get a buzz
From being a member of the party
So they could crash the ballot box
But that's another story

All I wanna be, something plain to see
Nothing special but just a priority
Just step back and see it's not the way to be
You've got to find a place in life

A nursery rhyme is really like
A politicians speech
Makes as much sense as counting
Pebbles on a beach

And if you don't believe me
Then check the manifesto
Just blah blah blah, and blah blah blah
The truth? I don't think so

All I wanna be, something plain to see
Nothing special but just a priority
Just step back and see, it's not the way to be
You've got to find a place in life

All I wanna be, something plain to see
Nothing special but just a priority
Just step back and see it's not the way to be
You've got to find a place in life

A nursery rhyme is really like
A politicians speech
Makes as much sense as counting
Pebbles on a beach

And if you don't believe me
Then check the manifesto
Just blah blah blah, and blah blah blah
The truth? I don't think so

All I wanna be, something plain to see
Nothing special but just a priority
Just step back and see it's not the way to be
You've got to find a place in life

All I wanna be, something plain to see
Nothing special but just a priority
Just step back and see it's not the way to be
You've got to find a place in life
