《Ordinary Man》歌词

[00:00:00] Ordinary Man - An Cat Dubh

[00:00:05] I'm an ordinary man

[00:00:07] Nothing special

[00:00:08] Nothing grand

[00:00:09] I've had to work for everything I own

[00:00:13] I never asked for a lot

[00:00:15] I was happy with what I got

[00:00:17] Enough to keep my family and my home

[00:00:21] Now that times are hard

[00:00:23] And they've founded me my cards

[00:00:25] They say

[00:00:25] There's not the work to go around

[00:00:28] When the whistle blows

[00:00:30] This gates will finally close

[00:00:32] Tonight they're going to

[00:00:33] Shut this factory down

[00:00:35] They'll tear it down

[00:00:39] They'll tear it down

[00:00:43] I never missed a day

[00:00:45] Nor went on strike for better pay

[00:00:47] For twenty years

[00:00:48] I served them the best I could

[00:00:51] With a handshake and a cheque

[00:00:52] It seems so easy to forget

[00:00:54] Loyalty through the bad times and the good

[00:00:58] The owner says he's sad to see

[00:01:00] That things have got so bad

[00:01:02] But the captains of industry will let him loose

[00:01:05] He still drives a car

[00:01:07] He smokes a cigar

[00:01:09] And still he takes his family on a cruise

[00:01:12] He'll never lose

[00:01:16] He'll never lose

[00:01:20] Now it seems to me to be

[00:01:22] Such a cruel irony

[00:01:24] He's richer now than ever he was before

[00:01:27] The cheque it is all spent

[00:01:29] And I can't afford the rent

[00:01:31] There's one law for the rich

[00:01:32] One for the poor

[00:01:35] Every day I've tried to salvage

[00:01:36] Some of my pride

[00:01:38] To find some work so I might pay my way

[00:01:42] But everywhere I go the answer's always no

[00:01:45] There's no work for anyone here today

[00:01:49] No work today

[00:01:52] No work today

[00:01:56] So condemned

[00:01:57] I stand just an ordinary man

[00:02:00] Like thousands beside me in the queue

[00:02:03] I watch my darling wife

[00:02:05] Trying to make the best of life

[00:02:07] God knows what the kids are going to do

[00:02:11] Now that we are faced

[00:02:12] With this human waste

[00:02:14] A generation cast aside

[00:02:17] As long as I live

[00:02:19] I never will forgive

[00:02:21] You've stripped me off my dignity and prid

[00:02:24] You've stripped me bare

[00:02:28] You've stripped me bare

[00:02:32] You've stripped me bare

[00:02:35] You've stripped me bare
