People of Earth (Album Version)

People of Earth (Album Version) - Syd Straw

People of earth

Sometimes you really get me down

People of earth

Sometimes it's just astonishing

People of earth

Sometimes you really get me down

Hey you at the bar

What you pay good money for

Hey you at the bar

What do you even come here for

You'll never know

What kind of a show you missed

Hey you in the blue van

Why did you steal my parking place

I know that you saw me waiting for it patiently

Now what did you do

Don't forget the gold hand rule

Please don't put me down

Please don't put me down

Does it make you feel big to belittle me

Please don't put me down

Don't kill me for my sneakers

Find some shoes of your own

And don't abuse our teachers

Cause we can learn this on our own

And people you know

We've really got a lot to learn

Attention all shoppers

Big big savings today

For our shoppers

If you've got the money to pay

Big savings in isle 6 today

People of earth greed greed greed

People of earth need need need

It's not in my nature to sit

And watch you bleed bleed bleed

Please don't put me down

Please don't let me down

Be the first one on your clock

To keep on walking top to top

Please don't let me down

And what about the oceans

I'm afraid to eat the fish

I bet their scared to live there

Look it's glowing in my dish

What did the aquatic world ever do

To deserve all of this

When will we ever learn

That oil and water don't mix

When I picture the world

I picture one better than this

Why do we keep fighting baby

Together we could live in bliss

People of earth I really love you

And never would I put myself above you

People of earth people of earth

People of earth people of earth

People of earth I really love you

I really love you

I am one of you
