Song of the Week - To Have and To Have Not - Lars Fredricksen And The Bastards

Guitarist - http://makemehappy.deviantart.com/

I don't think I even really need to explain why this is my song of the week, its just an awesome song and I'm sure we can all take something different from it. For me says don't give a fuck about what everyone else says, even if things are messed up or you've messed up, and everone is telling you you're going to fail; don't listen, do what you love and never look back.


Up in the morning and out to school
Mother says there'll be no work next year
Qualifications once the Golden Rule are now just pieces of paper
Just because you're better than me doesn't mean I'm lazy.
Just because you're going forwards doesn't mean I'm going backwards.

Well if you look the part well then you'll get the job in last year's trousers
and your oldschool shoes
The truth is son it's a buyer's market they can afford to pick and choose
Just because you're better than me doesn't mean I'm lazy
Just because I dress like this doesn't mean I'm a Communist.

Well the factory's are closing and the army's full
I don't know what I'm going to do
But I've come to see in the land of the free
There's only room for a chozen few
Just because you're better than me doesn't mean I'm lazy
Just because you're going forwards doesnt't mean I'm going backwards.

Well at 21 you're atop of the scrap heap
At 16 you were top of your class
Well I dropped outta high school in Cambell, California
Got a guitar and I never looked back.
