lyrics

Bring to the table what you own
Little as it seems, it’s more than a bone
How much is meagre, can you tell?
To those with nothing, it’s something to them

Rise above the mumblings
Rise above the mumblings
Rise above the mumblings
Of the man who has it all

Lay out your riches, if you will
Make hay before you’re over the hill
Who tanned the leather on your shoes
Who told you winners never, ever lose

Rise above the mumblings
Rise above the mumblings
Rise above the mumblings
Of the man who has it all

If you were a scientist with a crafty objective
You could build a rocket ship to take you to the next dimension

Bring to that table who you are
Kindness and virtue, reaches so far
Some who have plenty, find relief
In giving freely with no trick up their sleeve

Rise above the mumblings
Rise above the mumblings
Rise above the mumblings
Of the man who appears to have it all
