Them’s the Breaks versuri

Versuri Herbs – Them's the Breaks lyrics

May it please Your Honour and Lady Authority
O won’t you look at me and hear my plea
Captain So-So Welfare and Mr Bully Police
Telling us again through rejection, behave

Today I walk the streets, it’s the same every day
Madame Property Breach and Miss Headmistress Preach
Our values you mistake in the system you make
Keep us in our place with the rats in the race

(Them’s the breaks)
Hand me down
(Them’s the breaks)
Charity, charity, oh yeah
(Them’s the breaks)
I and I and I and I…

You don’t understand how we fit in your plan
When you educate rules and make tests for the best, yes
And call it a school, compete with the rest
Social welfare concern, churned from books they learn

Without leaving their chair, they tell you they care
One more media fact and the cards are stacked
Our values you mistake in the system you make
Keep us in our place with the rats in the race

(Them’s the breaks)
Hand me down
(Them’s the breaks)
Hand me down, hand me down
(Them’s the breaks)
Charity, charity
(Them’s the breaks)

(Them’s the breaks)
Polynesian integration
Multiracial education
Multiracial integration
I and I, I and I…
We create, yeah
Multiracial integration, innovation

(Them’s the breaks)
Charity, charity…
