Sat In Your Lap

Sat In Your Lap - Kate Bush (凱特·布希)

Written by：Kate Bush

I see the people working

And see it working for them

And so I want to join in

But then I find it hurts me

Some say that

Knowledge is something sat in your lap

Some say that

Knowledge is something that you never have

I see the people happy

So can it happen for me

'Cause when I am unhappy

There's nothing that can move me

Some say that

Knowledge is something that you never have

Some say that

Knowledge is something sat in your lap

Some say that heaven is hell

Some say that hell is heaven

I must admit

Just when I think I'm king

I just begin

Just when I think I'm king

I must admit

I just begin

Just when I think I'm king

I just begin

I've been doing it for years

My goal is moving near

It says look I'm over here

Then it up and disappears

Some say that

Knowledge is something sat in your lap

Some say that

Knowledge is ho ho ho ho

I want to be a lawyer

I want to be a scholar

But I really can't be bothered

Ooh just gimme it quick gimme it

Gimme gimme gimme gimme

Some say that

Knowledge is ho ho ho

Some say that

Knowledge is ho ho ho

Some say that heaven is hell

Some say that hell is heaven

I must admit

Just when I think I'm king

I just begin

Just when I think I'm king

I must admit

I just begin

Just when I think

Everything's going great

I just begin

I get the break

Hey I'm gonna take it all

I just begin

When I'm king

Just begin

In my dome of ivory

A home of activity

I want the answers quickly

But I don't have no energy

I hold a cup of wisdom

But there is nothing within

My cup she never overfloweth

And 'tis I that moan and groaneth

Some grey and white matter

Give me

The karma mama

I'm coming up the ladder

Hey I'm coming up the ladder

A jet to mecca

Up the ladder

Tibet or jeddah

To salisbury

A monastery

The longest journey

Across the desert

Across the weather

Across the elements

Across the water
