"Place In Life" lyrics - THE SPECIALS

Now Jack and Jill went up the hill to join the Labour right
They couldn't pay the water bills, but that was alright
They thought they'd get a buzz from being a member of the party
So they could crash the ballot box, but that's another story

All I wanna be, something plain to see
Nothing special but just a priority
Just step back and see it's not the way to be
You've got to find a place in life

A nursery rhyme is really like a politicians speech
Makes as much sense as counting pebbles on a beach
And if you don't believe me, then check the manifesto
Just blah blah blah, and blah blah blah, the truth I don't think so

All I wanna be, something plain to see
Nothing special but just a priority
Just step back and see it's not the way to be
You've got to find a place in life

All I wanna be, something plain to see
Nothing special but just a priority
Just step back and see it's not the way to be
You've got to find a place in life

A nursery rhyme is really like a politicians speech
Makes as much sense as counting pebbles on a beach
And if you don't believe me, then check the manifesto
Just blah blah blah, and blah blah blah, the truth I don't think so

All I wanna be, something plain to see
Nothing special but just a priority
Just step back and see it's not the way to be
You've got to find a place in life

All I wanna be, something plain to see
Nothing special but just a priority
Just step back and see it's not the way to be
You've got to find a place in life
