MiscellaneousNail Down The Days lyrics by Madness
You give me something that I just can't explain
I was lost in my childhood feeling lonely
I'll be the big man, I'll be the big noise
I'll be the square fellow
With these flat hand and a mind of my own
I was lost in dreams of a distant home
I'll be the big man, I'll be the big noise
I'll be the square fellow
On these great shores I was born
An immigrant to this city
Under the bright lights
Under the bright lights
I can't be happy 'till it's understood
I'll make my own way
Give me something that I can call my own
I'll nail down the days
Nail down the days
In this just land I was raised
To bow down to the man
I walked under the steel
I walked under the steel
Nothing's changed so I'll wait and I'll pray
Come now what may
Live and work for the best that they'll pay
Nail down the days
Nail down the days
See me a stranger and I'll call you a friend
You can lead me, a lamb to the slaughter
I'll be the big man, I'll be the big noise
I'll be the square fellow
Nothing's changed so I'll wait and I'll pray
Come now what may
Live and work for the best that they'll pay
Nail down the days
Nail down the days
I'll be the big man, I'll be the big noise
I'll be the square fellow
