NoMeansNo - All the Little Bourgeois Dreams lyrics
rate meAll is what it seems
It means just what it means
The sky is blue and the grass is green
In all the little bourgeois dreams
Will I make the baseball team?
Will Somebody love me?
Will the ground stay beneath my feet
and the sky above me?
Will I pass my final exams and finally make the grade?
Will I be forever young, or slowly start to fade?
Daddy died and I don't know why
Mom sits alone at home and cries
She will never be quite the same
She took all the blame
My older brother will lead the way
Where he is? I cannot say
He always liked to be alone
He never writes he never phones
Will I pass my driving test? and get my very first car?
Will I ever know who I am or who you are?
Will I work at the corner store
and save a dollar everyday
Will I ever really know the price I have to pay?
I drive around the whole day long
Just to make a living wage
At night I sit and watch TV
like a monkey in a cage
When I was young, the summer sun
rised before an age
but now the days just fly away
To where? I cannot say
Never ask a question
That has no answer
Never look the young blood is, to what is no more
Will they ever win the war?
Find a cure for cancer?
Will my pension carry me, to that distant shore?
