Just left school, can't find no work   Be a building labourer or an office clerk   Cant believe the men you've seen   On the scrapheap and you're only seventeen      What a wonderful world   What a wonderful world this is      Standing on the corner, waiting for a bus   Old Bill come and try to nick you for SUS   You try tell them that youve done nothing wrong   They tell you not to sing the same song      What a wonderful world   What a wonderful world this is      Standing in the pub on your own for the night   Group of nutters try to pick a fight   You can try and plead for your life   They'll still cut you with a fucking great knife       What a wonderful world   What a wonderful world this is
