You better run for your life if you can, little girl  
Hide your head in the sand little girl  
Catch you with another man  
That’s the end’a little girl

And it hurts my soul, cause I can’t let go all these walls are cavin in  
I can’t stop my sufferin  
I hate to show that I’ve lost control cause I,  
I keep goin right back to the one thing that I need to walk away from  
I need to get away from ya, need to walk away from ya get away, walk away, walk away

You’d better take my ad-vice,  
A black cat crossed your path–twice.  
The moon came out next to the sun,  
Then you opened up an umbrella in a room–  
You’d better run, run, run.

When you believe in things you don’t understand  
Then you suffer,  
Superstition ain’t the way

Seems there’s plans for everyone  
The day will come and we will know  
We all are tied in with each other  
Everyone brothers  
One great flow

Thinking about things I don’t understand  
Thinking about things I don’t understand

How tides control the sea and what becomes of me  
How little things can slip out of your hands  
How often people change, no two remain the same  
Why things don’t always turn out as you plan

These are things that I don’t understand  
Yeah, these are things that I don’t understand

I have climbed highest mountain  
I have run through the fields  
Only to be with you  
Only to be with you

I have run  
I have crawled  
I have scaled these city walls  
These city walls  
Only to be with you

But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for  
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for

Look for the union label  
when you are buying that coat, dress or blouse.  
Remember somewhere our union’s sewing,  
our wages going to feed the kids, and run the house.  
We work hard, but who’s complaining?  
Thanks to the I.L.G. we’re paying our way!  
So always look for the union label,  
it says we’re able to make it in the U.S.A.!

Workin’ for a livin’  
(Workin’)  
Workin’ for a livin’  
(Workin’)  
Workin’ for a livin’, livin’ and workin’  
I’m taking what they’re giving ‘cause I’m workin’ for a livin’

Hey I’m not complainin’ ‘cause I really need the work  
Hittin’ up my buddy’s got me feelin’ like a jerk  
Hundred dollar car note, two hundred rent  
I get a check on Friday, but it’s all ready spent

Everybody’s working for the weekend  
Everybody wants a new romance  
Everybody’s goin’ off the deep end  
Everybody needs a second chance, oh

The foreman tells what to do  
He really hates me, says I’ve ruined his mood  
I put a thumb tack in his shoe–  
Watched him hop around for a week,  
Like a bullfrog on a beach.  
I didn’t anticipate he’d investigate  
All the evidence points to me  
Now that’s the end of our being mates…  
Get workin’, work work work!

He drinks a whiskey drink  
He drinks a vodka drink  
He drinks a lager drink  
He drinks a cider drink  
He sings the songs that remind him of the good times  
He sings the songs that remind him of the better times

[1 for the cockpit blues](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=664rKNjdYC8)  
2 for the Panzer crews  
3 for the vast and molten sky  
4 for the failed talks  
5 for the knives and forks  
6 for forbidden kicks  
All the yobbos in the sticks
