lyrics

AIN'T GONNA GET IT

Boy running home in a daze
Wants the supermodel in the yo-yo craze
Mother’s purse had nothing inside
Indignatious talking on his mother he tried
Givin’ it up, givin’ it up
But you ain’t gonna get your way
Givin’ it up, givin’ it up
You don’t love me he say
She turns around
Sits right down
Reaching for the cigarettes
This is the day that you earn your way
Find out how fun life gets

Aint’ gonna get it
Ain’t gonna have it
Your brother’s off having a good time
But you ain’t gonna get it
Aint’ gonna get it
I aint’ gonna give it
Don’t you think it’s about time
That you ain’t gonna get it

Businessman cooks up a deal
A hotel on the beach that could earn him a steal
Government he tries to bribe
Supernaut connections the political tribe
Givin’ it up, givin’ it up
But it ain’t gonna work this time
Lawyers took the money, cut down in his prime
A heart attack was well on the way
Was the best TV performance you would see in your day

On heaven’s escalator all day
Saw his friends going the other way
Finally arrived at the door
But the bell-boy he was laughing he could take no more
