lyrics

Life is hard, that's what you learn
be a good boy, wait your turn
Do your best, build a nest
when you got the money, honey
you're like all the rest

Don't go sailing that boat around
you might not make it, back to town
cheer up, laddy, puff out your chest
when you got the money, honey
you're like all the rest

Sing-sing, sing-a-long
when did you notice, sumpin' was wrong
daddy's gone, mama, too
stop your crying, don't you be blue

I was there, when he came
He didn't bother to catch your name
I'm sorry son don't play with guns
You shot him down, 2 in the chest
when you got the money, honey
you're like all the rest

He's telling you, follow rules
be a good boy, and go to school
think like me, be like them
always be straight, don't smoke hemp
was it right, was it a test?
when you got the money, honey
you're like all the rest

Sing-sing, sing-a-long
when did you notice, sumpin' was wrong
daddy's gone, mama, too
stop your crying, don't you be blue
was it right, was it a test?
when you got the money, honey
you're like all the rest

Zane Brune Chicago, Illinois

"Zane Brune embodies the perfect compromise between a edgy rock and roll lifer and a elusive song-writer with his own unique language and expressions. Borrowing from the vast vernacular of rock, pop, soul and alternative, Brune swings from light to darkness seamlessly and frantically within a playlist that feels like a inner travel within the most remote corners of the human psyche." ... more
