Just left school cant find no work
Be a building labourer or an office clerk
Cant believe the men youve seen

On the scrapheap and youre only 17

What a wonderful world

What a wonderful world this is

Standing on the corner waiting for a bus

Old Bill come and try to nick you for SUS
You try tell them that youve done nothing wrong
They tell you not to sing the same song


What a wonderful world
What a wonderful world this is


Standing in the pub on your own for the night
Group of nutters try to pick a fight

You can try and plead for your life
Theyre still cut you with a $#&@ing great knife


What a wonderful world
What a wonderful world this is
