Lyrics

Bull in a China Shop

I'm a Bull, I'm a Bull in a China Shop
And every time I knock it down, they build it back up
I'm a Bull, I'm a Bull in a China Shop
I'm just waiting, just waiting for a Culture Shock

When most of these people don't know they're slaves
How can you expect them to go and break their chains?
An honest days work for an honest days pay
But the cost of honesty rises with the talk of free trade

They took the shackles off our necks and attached them to our feet
Trying to present the illusion that we're free
Try to keep my head above the water but I'm in too deep
Now my working rights have become obsolete

I'm a Bull, I'm a Bull in a China Shop
And every time I knock it down, they build it back up
I'm a Bull, I'm a Bull in a China Shop
I'm just waiting, just waiting for a Culture Shock

We may choose our masters but we're still the slaves
Until we realise this it's never gunna change
The story stays the same we're just on a different page
Its catch 22 for the minimum wage

And all this time I've got this building rage

I'm a Bull, I'm a Bull in a China Shop
And every time I knock it down, they build it back up
I'm a Bull, I'm a Bull in a China Shop
I'm just waiting, just waiting for a Culture Shock

So I ask myself is it all worthwhile?
The only ones who gain sit at the top of the pile
And I know that they won't leave me be
But if I'm going down then I'm taking you with me!

I'm a Bull, I'm a Bull in a China Shop
And every time I knock it down, they build it back up
I'm a Bull, I'm a Bull in a China Shop
I'm just waiting, just waiting for a Culture Shock

I'm a Bull, I'm a Bull in a China Shop
I'm a Bull, I'm a Bull in a China Shop
I'm a Bull, I'm a Bull in a China Shop
