david j – imitation pearls lyrics
ambition refused at the fence
torn up bets, long faces
success is a whipping horse
sent screaming through its paces
lucre deals a calling card
to tempt our pride away
to break bread or promises
on this blue ribbon day
they talk of a tumble
an eleventh hour dive
to kill off your integrity
in order to survive
i am not going to dive for imitation pearls
i am not going to dive for imitation pearls
they will back you to the hills
sing aloud your praises
if you keep your blinkers on
and lose the right fixed races
well prepared to suffer
the consequences of refusal
i won’t be begging for hypocracy’s approval
i am not going to dive for imitation pearls
i am not going to dive for imitation pearls
i am not going to dive for imitation pearls
i am not going to dive
