THE DEAL

I don’t wanna be rich
so I get things for free
the fizzy champagne and chocolate doves
don’t have to be complimentary

and I don’t wanna be famous
and see my face in a magazine
the love, the hate and all the gossip
well that really ain’t my scene

I just wanna live and never waste a day
Knowing that when I speak
I’ve really got something to say
So maybe here and now you tell me how you feel
Seal it with a kiss, this could be our deal

Don’t tell me now
You’ve heard it all before
Cos I don’t know what I can say
That’s gonna blow you all away

And I may not be new
Or meet all your credentials
But my life’s too short
To ignore what I have mentioned

Well the elderly, they always got something to say
Mainly that this world they’re in, scares them everyday
And what do we say, to allay all of their fears,
£1 more a week to all the old dears???
