The Stanfields - Jack of All Trades lyrics

I'm a Jack of all trades and a ba*tard son A burnt out slave and a master of none A cog on a wheel in a dog and pony show But if I won the lottery I'd be taken seriously With the keys to the kingdom and a stock portfolio No I don't know why I wait for pigs to fly A normal day for them is a miracle for me The master makes the rules And the master plays the fools An ordinary voice in a silent harmony Silent harmony Look at the Jones, they ain't sad at all They love the wage, they hate us all They dance to the rhythm of a dark and distant drone I can't keep up with the Jones no more I can't make rent when I had it before Now a big wolf is at the door Looking for blood from a stone No I don't know why I wait for pigs to fly A normal day for them is a miracle for me The master makes the rules And the master plays the fools An ordinary voice in a silent harmony Silent harmony Should I grow old before I die Just another John Doe in debt to his eyes Choking on the barrel of a gun run down my throat Held by the master's invisible hands "More, more, more!" the master commands "Call in the lawyers, piss on the ants," I quote. No joke No I don't know why I wait for pigs to fly A normal day for them is a miracle for me The master makes the rules And the master plays the fools An ordinary voice in a silent harmony Silent harmony
