Me queuein' at the [?] payin' me rates
The gas, electric and the phone must wait
Ya have to save some but fe fay for the fine
From the past me I try to leave behind

Everywhere you go, you can hear them say
What are we to do... today?

Me queue at the bookie, 2.15 a tear
Dat cyan't buy me the break I want in June
It come in last but we not care
Mе passport run on this afternoon

Everywherе you go, you can hear them say
What are we to do... today?

Lawd, have mercy

Everywhere you go, you can hear them say
What are we to do... today?

Me queue at the the bar fe buy a scotch
Me get a talk 'pon me back "Do I wanna buy a watch"
But me have no need for your second hand
'Cause time wait for no man
Everywhere you go, you can hear them say
What are we to do... today?

Everywhere you go, you can hear them say
Everywhere you go, you can hear them say

What are we to do... today?
What are we to do... today?

Everywhere you go, you can hear them say
Everywhere you go, you can hear them say

What are we to do... today?
What are we to do... today?
