mike aiken - penelope lyrics
everyday
penelope works in the market
down in the coconut trees
she’s saving up all of her money
to go to america across the sea
she once had an uncle
he lived in detroit town
they got all of his postcards
but his body has never been found
to this day yeah, yeah, yeah
to this day yeah, yeah, yeah
to this day yeah, yeah, yeah
to this day yeah, yeah, yeah
she got a job as a domestic
working for the minimum wage
all her friends back home in jamaica
they say, ‘you really got it made in the shade’
but they don’t see her sweat and grind
and bending on her knees
she wishes she was back in jamaica
beneath the coconut trees
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
penelope’s back in the market
she found what it was all about
oh no, she doesn’t regret it
she’s just glad that she got out
but others aren’t so lucky
they’re there ’til the day they die
trapped in the steel and the concrete
no beach, no moon, no sky
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah
everyday
everyday yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
everyday yeah, yeah, yeah
