They tell you not to worry They say they're terribly sorry But that's the way it has to be For the likes of me Just be good and know your station Always look on the bright side Keep your faith and keep your patience Your reward is after you've died So don't be told Don't be consoled Things are so bad You can never make do And there's always someone better off than you They tell you that's your future It's all down to human nature Simply settle for what you got That's destiny and that's your lot All of us cannot come first Yes, what you have is second-best But it might be a good deal worse Third world peasants get even less So don't be told Don't be consoled Things are so bad You can never make do And there's always someone better off than you Do you care that it's not fair? Is this the way we have to live? I know I care And I want an equal share Even if it means I have to give The people who are on top Say that you should keep your chin up And they are keen to show you The unhappy ones below you But I want no more of that stuff That's looking at it upside down And the world has got money enough For us to make it go around Don't be told Don't be consoled Don't be ruled Don't be fooled Because things are so bad you can never make do And there's always someone better off than you
