Careering (2006 Digital Remaster)

I don't know can't you see

I'm just passing through fast as you –

Don't ask me

Careering out of control

Disappearing down the black hole

Careering – the white man's soul

Stands stark naked in the floodlight glare

Stands stark raving on the strap

I've had the feeling that I've been there

But I can't quite believe it

I don't know can't you see

I'm just passing through fast as you

So don't ask me

Careering simply day to day

Engineering everything I say

Careering for the work and the pay

I'm just a passenger passing through

I'm just an average chap

(We are normal )

If I said I hadn't got a clue

There'd still come the questions

I don't know can't you see

I'm just another case of wasted space

So don't ask me

Don't ask me

Don't ask me

Don't ask me

Don't ask me

Don't ask me

Don't ask me

Don't ask me

Careering my apprenticeship

No nearer than my pension slip;

Careering down the Cresta Run

I screw it up just like anyone;

Careering – pointless anyway

To do it just for the work and the pay

Look here:

I don't know can't you see

I'm so near the end get it straight friend –

Don't ask me

Don't ask me

Don't ask don't ask me
