Album: Next Position Please
Words and Music by Rick Nielsen
People all over the world
They get up they get down
They get in they get out
They get pushed, they go back
Start all over again
Till they get to the end
I'm from a small town
Had a poor family
Mama was sick, Papa worked the factory
I led a rich life
Never had to work hard
House in the country
Horses in my backyard
Next position please
Do I have to get down on my knees
Next position please
I'm in a hurry, so hurry please
Read between the lines
Learn a new message
Read the latest book
It's a new twist
Be the first one to have a new ideal
You'll never get bored with mirrors on the ceiling
Next position please
Do I have to get down on my knees
Next position please
I'm in a hurry, so hurry please
People all over the world
They get up they get down
They get in they get out
They get pushed, they go back
Start all over again
Till they get to the end
I wanna move up within the company
I can do better with an opportunity
Why don't they use me instead of abuse me?
I'm ten out of ten, not some whore in some movie
I wanna be the biggest gun in the world
I wanna see the tits on every girl
Next position please
You have to get down on your knees
Next position please
I'm in a hurry, so hurry please
(Repeat to Coda)
