Labi Siffre - Nothin’s Gonna Change lyrics
[Labi Siffre - Nothin’s Gonna Change lyrics]
Life can be funny
Sometimes a shame
Making the same mistakes again and again
It isn't easy being a man
For a woman it's harder
Try it in the Sudan
And when you're winning and when you've won
You turn around your problems just begun
And when you're losing and when you've lost
You turn around it wasn't worth the cost
How did we make it
It's a mystery
We're getting better
That's news to me
Are we defeated
Huh! Defeated like hell
We may be losers
But we'll never tell
Nothin's Gonna Change
But we don't give in
Nothin's Gonna Change
Take it on the chin
Nothin's Gonna Change
Keep that silly grin
Nothin's Gonna Change
The only way to win
World wars are over
One and two
Others are raging still just like brand new
The Big Band is with us
It's here to stay
Unless the Martians come to take it away
My TV dinner shows a starving face
The kicked a man to death outside my place
We strangle nature
We murder the trees
Forgetting we need the trees to breathe
Sometimes a shame
Making the same mistakes again and again
It isn't easy being a man
For a woman it's harder
Try it in the Sudan
And when you're winning and when you've won
You turn around your problems just begun
And when you're losing and when you've lost
You turn around it wasn't worth the cost
How did we make it
It's a mystery
We're getting better
That's news to me
Are we defeated
Huh! Defeated like hell
We may be losers
But we'll never tell
Nothin's Gonna Change
But we don't give in
Nothin's Gonna Change
Take it on the chin
Nothin's Gonna Change
Keep that silly grin
Nothin's Gonna Change
The only way to win
World wars are over
One and two
Others are raging still just like brand new
The Big Band is with us
It's here to stay
Unless the Martians come to take it away
My TV dinner shows a starving face
The kicked a man to death outside my place
We strangle nature
We murder the trees
Forgetting we need the trees to breathe
