the guilts - jez lowe and the bad pennies lyrics
i met a well*fed face from a hungry past
he was honest and angry when i saw him last
i said it’s oh so good to see a friend like you
after so long and what we’ve all been through
he said for me nah things couldn’t be better
’cause you know i’ve always been a real go*getter
i fought my way to the top of my pile
no guilty conscience ever cramped my style
(chorus)
and those guilts those guilts they can’t hurt me
the guilts those guilts they can’t hurt me
me heart’s as hard as hard can be
well i just don’t care!
don’t give me those guilts those guilts they can’t hurt me
the guilts those guilts they can’t hurt me
i fought my way to the top of my tree
and i’m gonna stay right there he said
i’m gonna stay right there
he said i can remember when we sang those songs
of working class struggle they were such good fun
ah but times were changing and i’d soon had enough
of that old joe hill and all the left*wing stuff
so while you say around blowing bad harmonica
well i made money as a right*wing scavenger
i closed me eyes to the poor and oppressed
if i couldn’t make profit i couldn’t care less
(chorus)
he said i bet you never thought i’d get this far
with me brand*new suit and my custom car
but i can tell by your frowns and your plain soft talk
we were horse and carriage now we’re cheese and chalk
but you can keep your pity and your cool compassion
’cause i’m sorry to say it’s out of fashion
this is the age of the self*made man
do unto others before others can
(chorus)
so won’t you shake my hand and agree to differ
i said some day you’ll come a cropper
i’ll turn away from your heart*felt pleas
’cause i’ll remember what you just said to me
and i’ll say those guilts those guilts they won’t hurt me
the guilts those guilts they won’t hurt me
me heart’ll be hard as hard can be
well i just won’t care
don’t give me those guilts those guilts they won’t hurt me
the guilts those guilts they won’t hurt me
they’ll chop you down from the top of your tree
i only hope i’m there, i said
i only hope i’m there
