Lyrics
Feather In The Cap
It?s just another feather in the cap
For big man enterprises
He?s sold another 10,000 devices
He gives himself a well earned pat on the back
And wishes it was earlier
Still he trots home to suburbia
Because Christmas is coming
And the rich are getting fat
The poor are getting thinner
But we don?t talk about that
If you haven?t got a penny
Then a halfpenny will do
If you haven?t got a halfpenny
We don?t want to know you
Everything is just the same as it was
At home where his kids are crying
And his wife?s blank expression
Explaining everything
His head is full of sales promotion and work
So blind that his eyes can?t see her
So dumb that his lips can?t say that he needs her
Chorus
With nothing but a suitcase hastily packed
Trailing the kids behind her
She leaves in the morning with the sunrise
She?s looking for the man who asked her to dance
She?s looking for the man she married
Maybe he?ll come looking, just maybe
Chorus
