Song Detail — Book of Rules (The Heptones)
Lyrics
Isn't it strange how princesses and kingsAnd clowns their capers in sawdust rings
And common people you and me will be builders for eternity
Each is given a bag of tools, a shapeless mass, and a book of rules
And each must make, ere life has flown
A stumbling block or a stepping stone
And ommon people you and me will be builders for eternity
Each is given a bag of tools, a shapeless mass, and a book of rules
Pow wa pow pow, pow wa pow pow pow
Wa pa pa pow pow, wa pow pow pa pow pow
Pow wa pow pow, pow wa pow pow pow
Wa pa pa pow pow, wa pow pow pa pow pow
And poor people you and me will be builders for eternity
Each is given a bag of tools, a shapeless mass, and a book of rules
Look where rain is falling from the sky
I know the sun will be only missing for a while
And common people you and me will be builders for eternity
Each is given a bag of tools, a shapeless mass, and a book of rules
Pow wa pow pow, pow wa pow pow pow
Wa pa pa pow pow, wa pow pow pa pow pow
Pow wa pow pow, pow wa pow pow pow
Wa pa pa pow pow, wa pow pow pa pow pow
I say
Poor people you and me will be builders for eternity
Each is given a bag of tools, a shapeless mass, and a book of rules
Pow wa pow pow, pow wa pow pow pow
Wa pa pa pow pow, wa pow pow pa pow pow
Pow wa pow pow, pow wa pow pow pow
Wa pa pa pow pow, wa pow pow pa pow pow
