Lyrics

[00:15.84] I am a man who looks after the pigs
[00:22.13] Usually I get along OK.
[00:29.00] I am man who reveals all he digs,
[00:35.21] Should be more careful what I say.
[00:41.08] I'm getting put down,
[00:44.08] I'm getting pushed round,
[00:48.05] I'm being beaten every day.
[00:53.65] My life's fading,
[00:56.30] But things are changing,
[00:59.98] I'm not gonna sit and weep again.
[01:10.82] I am man who drives a local bus
[01:16.04] I take miners to work, but the pits all closed today.
[01:23.30] It's easy to see that you are one of us.
[01:29.64] Ain't it funny how we all seem to look the same?
[01:35.33] I'm getting put down,
[01:38.44] I'm getting pushed round,
[01:42.31] I'm being beaten every day.
[01:48.16] My life's fading,
[01:51.21] But things are changing,
[01:55.03] I'm not gonna sit and weep again.
[02:05.22] My karma tells me
[02:08.02] You've been screwed again.
[02:11.22] If you let them do it to you
[02:13.98] You've got yourself to blame.
[02:20.35] It's you who feels the pain
[02:26.66] It's you that feels ashamed.
[02:42.03] I am a young man
[02:44.23] I ain't done very much,
[02:48.01] You men should remember how you used to fight.
[02:54.41] Just like a child, I've been seeing only dreams,
[03:00.63] I'm all mixed up but I know what's right.
[03:06.17] I'm getting put down,
[03:09.28] I'm being pushed round,
[03:13.15] I'm being beaten every day.
[03:18.80] My life's fading,
[03:21.64] But things are changing,
[03:25.81] I'm not gonna sit and weep again.
[03:33.47] I'm not going to weep again.
