INTRO/VERSE - VERSE They’re trying hard to put me in my place And that is why I gotta keep running The future’s mine and it’s no disgrace Cos in the end the past means nothing You tell me I’m free then you tie me down And from my chains I think it’s a pity What did it cost you to wear my crown You don’t like it so why don’t you admit it BRIDGE D’you feel a little down today? Bet you ain’t got much to say? You’re gonna miss me when I’m not there - - - ....(listen to song and you’ll understand) And you know I don’t care you know I don’t care CHORUS - .... As we beg and steal and borrow Life is hit and miss and this I hope I think I know And if I ever hear the names you call If I stumble catch me when I fall Cos baby after all you’ll never forget my name Then return back to the CHORUS. DO YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN >From "Be here now" Verse 1: Step off the train alone at dawn Back into the hole where I was born The sun in the sky never raised an eye to me The blood on the trax must be mine The fool on the hill and I feel fine Don’t look back cos’ you know what you might see Verse2: Look into the wall of my mind’s eye I think I know but I don’t know why The questions are the answers you might need Coming in a mess going out in style I ain’t good looking but I’m someones child No-one can give me the air that’s mine to breathe Bridge: I met my maker I made him cry And on my shoulder he asked me why His people won’t fly through the storm I said: Listen up man they don’t even know you’re born Chorus All my people right here right now D’you know what I mean? All my people right here right now D’you know what I mean? All my people right here right now D’you know what I mean? yeah yeah Verse3 I don’t really care for what you believe So open up your fist or you won’t recieve The thoughts are the words of every man you ’ll need So get up of the floor and believe in life No-one’s ever gonna ask you twice Get on the bus and bring it home to me Bridge: I met my maker I made him cry And on my shoulder he asked me why His people won’t fly through the storm I said: Listen up man they don’t even know you’re born Chorus All my people right here right now D’you know what I mean? All my people right here right now D’you know what I mean? All my people right here right now D’you know what I mean? yeah yeah (repeat twice)
