They tell you not to worry, they say they＇re terribly sorry

But that＇s the way it has to be, for the likes of you and me

Just be good and know your station

Always look on the bright side

Keep you faith and keep your patience

Your reward is after you＇ve died

(Chorus:)

So don＇t be told, don＇t be consoled

Things are so bad, you can never make do

And there＇s always someone better off than you

They tell you that＇s your future, it＇s all down to human nature

Simply settle for what you got, that＇s destiny and that＇s your lot

All of us cannot come first, yes what you have is second best

But it might be a good deal worse

Third world peasants get even less

(Chorus)

Do you care that it＇s not fair?

Is this the way we have to live?

I know I care, and I want an equal share

Even if it mean I have to give

The people who are on top

Say that you should keep your chin up and

They are keen to show you, the unhappy ones below you

But I want to more of that stuff, that＇s looking at it upside down

And the world has got money enough for us to make it go around so

Don＇t be told, don＇t be consoled

Don＇t be ruled and don＇t be fooled

Because things are so bad you can never make do

And there＇s always someone better off than you
