lyrics
Who pops babies on the land?
Who pops TV stars in command?
Who makes sounds that make you cry on your way home from school?
ma- ma- ma- mathematics
times, tables turn
don’t- don’t- don’t- don’t wanna do that
born on labour day
yeah- yeah- yeah- take a ticket
cruise the world
Who pops pills that make you stay up all night?
Who drops needles in the spotlight?
Who makes little flowers fall on the top of my head? (I don’t know!)
ma- ma- ma- mathematics
times, tables turn
don’t- don’t- don’t- don’t wanna do that
born on labour day
yeah- yeah- yeah- take a ticket
cruise the world
Lay low observe the holiday
and enjoy your honest pay, yeah
to lead a life that’s based on famous autobiographic tales
“Who makes sounds that make you cry on your way home from school?”
Lay low observe the holiday
and respect the man in grey, yeah
collect the tears that roll down cheeks on labour labour labour day
ma- ma- ma- mathematics
times, tables turn
don’t- don’t- don’t- don’t wanna do that
born on labour day
yeah- yeah- yeah- take a ticket
cruise the world
born on labour day
born on labour day
born on labour day
born on labour day
born on labour day
Who pops TV stars in command?
Who makes sounds that make you cry on your way home from school?
ma- ma- ma- mathematics
times, tables turn
don’t- don’t- don’t- don’t wanna do that
born on labour day
yeah- yeah- yeah- take a ticket
cruise the world
Who pops pills that make you stay up all night?
Who drops needles in the spotlight?
Who makes little flowers fall on the top of my head? (I don’t know!)
ma- ma- ma- mathematics
times, tables turn
don’t- don’t- don’t- don’t wanna do that
born on labour day
yeah- yeah- yeah- take a ticket
cruise the world
Lay low observe the holiday
and enjoy your honest pay, yeah
to lead a life that’s based on famous autobiographic tales
“Who makes sounds that make you cry on your way home from school?”
Lay low observe the holiday
and respect the man in grey, yeah
collect the tears that roll down cheeks on labour labour labour day
ma- ma- ma- mathematics
times, tables turn
don’t- don’t- don’t- don’t wanna do that
born on labour day
yeah- yeah- yeah- take a ticket
cruise the world
born on labour day
born on labour day
born on labour day
born on labour day
