What Are The Lyrics For Riddle Me By UB40?
[Chorus]
Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this, Who owns the chains that bind your wrists? Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this, Who built the machine that washed your brain? Like parents did before them Your parents did the same They said do your best, you must pass the test You must learn to play the game They scrimped and saved and suffered To send you off to school But if they'd had the cash they could've bought the class And a different set of rules Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this, Who owns the chains that bind your wrists? Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this, Who built the machine that washed your brain? They taught a simple system Why they had and you had not They said know your place, you can't win the race Life's an auction you're the lot If you'd ever thought to question They would never answer why When they buy your sweat, your are in their debt And they own you till you die Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this, Who owns the chains that bind your wrists? Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this, Who built the machine that washed your brain? You took hook line and sinker Everything they fed Worked day and night, for most your life To earn their daily bread Now you're old and weary, And you lay you down to sleep With body worn and spirit torn What's left is yours to keep Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this, Who owns the chains that bind your wrists? Riddle me who, riddle me why, answer me this, Who built the machine that washed your brain? |
