Lyrics:
of mankind
God is smilin' on you but he's frownin' too
Because only God knows what you'll go through
You'll grow in the ghetto livin' second-rate
And your
love you for what I am not
I did not want what I have got
Blanket acne'd with cigarette burns
Second-rate third degree burns
What is wrong with me?
out second rate
Thinkin' you're on time but you're already late
You're blind!
You're blind!
And you can't see
You need to wear some glasses
of mankind
God is smilin' on you but he's frownin' too
Because only God knows what you'll go through
You'll grow in the ghetto livin' second-rate
And your
love you for what I am not
I did not want what I have got
Blanket acne'd with cigarette burns
Second-rate third degree burns
What is wrong with me?
out second rate
Thinkin' you're on time but you're already late
You're blind!
You're blind!
And you can't see
You need to wear some glasses
A golden sheaf and tall
Yours were green and second-rate
And really rather small
This is not the kind of thing
We brothers like to hear
It seems to us
a night on the town
And I'm not a second-rate queen getting kicks with a crown
Next stop will be Europe
The rainbow's gonna tour, dressed up, somewhere
where it's
So easy keepin' straight
Salt Lake City just really makes
Des Moines look second rate
Ain't makin' no big deal about it
But I hear the Mormon
you down
It's all so second-rate.
When we can last for days on a loving night;
Or for hours at least on a warm whisper given.
You always pick
You're not decorating a girl for a night on the town
And I'm not a second-rate queen getting kicks with a crown
Next stop will be Europe
The rainbow's
Now you watch your mouth, watch your mouth, Ms Effie White
'Cause I don't take that talk from no second-rate diva
Who can't sustain
I'm not feeling
Everybody's trying to be somebody else
So i'll just be me
That seems better than a second rate carbon copy to me
Nowhere near perfect i'm so far
Unfamiliar faces with the unsexy causes
And they're right, we're second rate, but not alone, ooh-oh
With sunspots in our eyes, our shoes are filled with
rate
Well that aint the case
And this one's for you now
They call him second rate
Well they took the bate
And this one's for you now
This one's for
you, thank you
But it hasn't all been champagne and caviar
I've had my share of adversity thanks to that
Miserable, second-rate detective, Basil
out of water
Flounderin' round
Out of my element
But I'm just as good as they are
Why do I feel second rate
It's like, "Sorry Charlie,
We want
Accept the fact that you're second rate life is easy for you
It's all served up on a gold plated plate
And we don't even have to talk to you
Your
night
Everything is alright
That's when the bad man meets his fate
Sitting there, you're feeling only second rate
You're sorry now, you've come
life second rate?
Just because they're dark and lovely
Just because they're dark and lovely
They do a dance
Called Mbaqanga jive
Rainbow
a face on your pillowcase
That thrills you
And you started looking much older
And your fashion sense is second-rate like your perfume
But to you in
a face on your pillowcase
That thrills you
And you started looking much older
And your fashion sense is second-rate like your perfume
But to you in
despair
No hope?
Not a glimmer
Now you're nothing
But second hand
In glove
With second rate now
Now you're flirting
With heroin
Or is it cocaine?
second rate
Just because they're dark 'n' lovely
Just because they're dark 'n' lovely
They do a dance
called Mbaqana jive
Rainbow people
Dancin'
