about

This is my Slave Galley song. Sort of a slight dig at the gummint. It's full of really rich sounds - predominantly supplied by 10dd - a choir I am proud to be involved with. ENJOY!

lyrics

Clever Piece of Life
© Julie Lamb
Sir, can you please conduct me to a clever piece of life
Sir, can you please instruct me on a better way of life
Be clever, be better and faster and wiser and more
Work harder, work faster pray more to your God
You're all piss and plaster and you make me bored
Be better, be stronger love all of your faults
And when you have done that get checked for results, Oh
Sir, can you please conduct me to a clever piece of life
Sir, can you please instruct me on a better way of life
Say nothing, see nothing, hear nothing, do nothing more
See nothing, say nothing but laugh at my jokes
Be happy to listen, you'll know how to vote
Hear nothing, do nothing, no healthy debate
And when nothing changes it's not on my plate, Oh
Sir, can I please conduct you to a clever piece of life
Sir, can I please instruct you on a better way of life
Do something, be something, fight something, love someone... or...
Sir, can you please conduct me to a clever piece of life
Sir, can you please instruct me on a better way of life
Say nothing, see nothing, hear nothing, do nothing more
Sir, can I please conduct you to a clever piece of life
Sir, can I please instruct you on a better way of life
Do something, be something, fight something, love someone... or...
