intro (played twice before every verse);
G C G Em D G
up in the morning and out to school
Em D Gmother says there'll be no work next year
G C Gqualifications once the golden rule
are now just pieces of paper
Just because you're better than me
Em D Gdoesn't mean i'm lazy
G C Gjust because you're going forwards
doesnt mean i'm going backwards
(same riff for the whole song)
if you look the part, you'll get the job
in last year's trousers and your old school shoes
the truth is son, it's a buyer's market
they can't 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
the factories are closing and the army's full
i don't know what i'm going to do
but iv'e come to see that in the land of the free
there's only a future for the chosen few
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
at twenty-one you're on top of the scrap heap
at sixteen you were top of the class
all they tought you in school was how to be a good worker
the system has failed you, don't fail yourself
just because you're better than me
doesn't mean i'm lazy
just because you're going forwards
doesn't mean im going backwards
