PROCLAIMERS - Cap In Hand lyrics
rate meI could tell the meaning of a word like serene<br>I got some 'o' grades when I was sixteen<br>I can tell the difference between magarine and butter<br>I can say saskatchewan without starting to stutter<br><br>But I can't understand why we let someone else rule our land<br>We're cap in hand<br><br>I could get a broken jaw from being in a fight<br>I know it's evening when day turns to night<br>I can understand why stranraer lie so lowly<br>They could save a lot of points by signing hibs goalie<br><br>But I can't understand why we let someone else rule our land<br>We're cap in hand<br><br>We fight - when they ask us<br>We boast - then we cower<br>We beg<br>For a piece of<br>Whats already ours<br><br>Once I thought I could make God a bribe<br>So I said I was in his lost tribe<br>Getting handouts can be so frustrating<br>Get in line son, there's five million waiting<br><br>I can't understand why you let someone else rule your land<br>You're cap in hand.
