Rory McLeod - Collector Man lyrics



I hear the rent collector knocking, then the tax collector rings
It seems the rich get lots of money and the poor have lots of kids

Collector man, hear him knocking on our door
I never knew us poor people were so popular before

Collector man they'll miss the mansions, but they knocked on our poor door
Daddy wouldn't pay, collector man telephoned the law

Collector man, hear him knocking on our door
I never knew us poor poeple were so popular before

Well now daddy told us not to waste a penny, to keep and save everything we find
Because tomoorrow there wont be any, the rich get richer all the time

Collector man, hear him knocking on our door
I never knew us poor people were so popular before
[SOLO]
I never knew us poor people were so popular before

Now my daddy told me and my brother, get out of school to work for money
I'd be an educated fool if i don't, 'cause when you're starving books mean nothing

Collector man, hear him knocking on our door
I never knew us poor people were so popular before

Now kids at school they laugh and stare at me 'cause my trousers dont fit
Be cool now, stare at the sun, only when there's an eclipse

Collector man hear him knocking on our door
I never knew us poor people were so popular
I never knew us poor people were so damn popular
I never knew us poor people were so popular before
