“The Israelites” (1990 Desmond Dekker)
[Verse 1]
Get up in the morning, slaving for bread, sir
So that every mouth can be fed
Poor, poor me, Israelites (Ah-ah)
Get up in the morning, slaving for bread, sir
So that every mouth can be fed
Poor, poor me, Israelites, sir
[Verse 2]
My wife and my kids, they pack up and a-leave me
Darling, she said, “I was yours to receive”
Poor, poor me, Israelites, hey
Shirt, them a-tear up, trousers are gone
I don’t want to end up like Bonnie and—
(Poor) Bonnie and Clyde, poor me, Israelites, hey
[Verse 3]
After a storm, there must be a calm
They catch me in the farm
You sound your alarm
Poor, poor me, Israelites, hey
[Instrumental]

Dem a wonder we not working so hard
Poor, poor me, Israelites
Dey look a-down on me, sir
Poor, poor me, Israelites (Yeah-ee-ee)
Poor, poor me, Israelites, yeah, yeah, yeah
Poor, poor me, Israelites, yeah, yeah
Poor, poor me, Israelites (Israelites)
Poor, poor me, Israelites
‘It’s, A Matter of Fact” by Jeff Lynne and ELO!!!!!!
“Don’t Try Suicide” Queen
Easy contest no contest.
I’m a Loser by the Beatles.
First section of lyrics:
I’m a loser
I’m a loser
And I’m not what I appear to be
then there is this:
Although I laugh and I act like a clown
Beneath this mask I am wearing a frown
finally this:
What have I done to deserve such a fate?
I realize I have left it too late
And so it’s true pride comes before a fall
I’m telling you so that you won’t lose all
