lyrics

Vote for this one, vote for that one
ain’t no difference I can see
no matter which one get my thumbprint
only one result will be
Fingers in my pocket, fingers in my pocket
fingers in my pocket every day
Drive my car, park my car, fix my car it’s all just pain
ain’t no cheaper on the railtrack, since they privatised the train
Fingers in my pocket, fingers in my pocket
fingers in my pocket every day.
Well the man he checks my status, he tells me what he’s found
I wanna tell him, don’t mind me friend….
how long will you still be around?
Fingers in my pocket, fingers in my pocket
fingers in my pocket every day.
The cost of living gets so high, I can’t even afford to die
Fingers in my pocket, fingers in my pocket every day
Won’t you tell me, oh my children, where to find the money tree
don’t know why I wait for the answer, you all know so much more than me
Fingers in my pocket, fingers in my pocket
fingers in my pocket every day
Vote for this one, vote for that one
ain’t no difference I can see
no matter which one get my thumbprint
only one result will be
Fingers in my pocket, fingers in my pocket
fingers in my pocket every day.
