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)
