HOUSEMARTINS - Bow Down lyrics

rate me

Mother, father, I think that I would rather<br>Stay at home with you for another year<br>That building's so tall and it makes me feel so small<br>That I might get lost and simply disappear<br>Evil smiles won't change my mind<br>I'm worried and I'm not the worrying kind<br>Why's that man rubbing his hands<br>Looking at me writing down his plans? <br><br>Today I have been moulding plasticine<br>And I made a little man who looked just like me<br>His limbs were so weak and he couldn't move hiw mouth to speak<br>And I could bend him into any shape I wanted him to be<br><br>Evil smiles won't change my mind<br>I'm worried and I'm not the worrying kind<br>Why's that man rubbing his hands<br>Looking at me writing down his plans? <br><br>Those kids with the blazers on<br>They went in with names on their elbows<br>Came home with medals on<br>Spit it out that's the way the story goes<br><br>A flying start for the briefcase crew<br><br>Oh, you didn't have to teach me like you did<br>But you did<br>And you didn't have to beat me like you did<br>But you did<br>But you did<br>You did<br>You did
