People
by Dick Groves
They tell you what to do, they tell you where to go
People
They tell you what to eat, tell you how to sleep
Who are these people.
You know the ones I mean, you see them on the screen
People
I’m in charge of my own fate, I don’t need a nanny state
From these people.
CHORUS
I’ve got a name but I’m a number, I refuse to go under
Got a mind of my own, I don’t need to be shown
I’m gonna take control, before I’m pushed down a hole. By these people.
Whether you’re rich or you’re poor, you just show them to the door
These people.
I don’t need to be told, I’ll be in it when I’m old
By these people.
If there’s one thing that’s a must, you should never give your trust
To people
They want to be in charge, but their egos are too large
You know these people.
CHORUS
You know the ones I mean, yeah you know the ones I mean
You know the ones I mean
You’ve seen them on the screen, yeah you’ve seen them on the screen
You’ve seen them on the screen
You can take them you can leave them, there’s nothing in between them
People.
They know your every thought, but they’re easily bought
These people.
Although it might be hard, you should never drop your guard
To people.
Just to get on the right track, they’ll stab you in the back. That’s people!
CHORUS
