Count It Up - Field Music

If you’ve ever owned a car

Or you rent a car

Or you have a company car

Then count that up

Add it to the evergrowing list of

things you can’t claim all the credit for

If your mother had a job

Your dad had a job

When you’re growing up then count that up

'Cause wants a penny some the only kind of capital

If you’ve ever visited another

country and walked through passport control

Then count that up

One more stamp in the book you’d like to call my own genius

Count it up

If you get to choose the clothes you wear and how you cut your hair

Then count that up

Count it up

And you knew lies you democratic power for the good of somebody else

Then try to

Count

Count

fashion for?

Can’t we give each other the tiniest benefit of it all

If you can go through day to day without the fear of violence

Count that up

Count it up

If people don’t stare at you on the

street because of the colour of your skin

Count that up

Count it up

If your body makes some kind of sense to you

Count that up

Count it up

And use the breath you have left to say something that

Then try to count it up

If you can turn on the tap

And your kids can drink the water

Count that up

Count it up

If you’ve ever had the luxery of turning down a job

Count that up

Count it up

If you had books and you had

magazines in your house when you were kids

Don’t forget

Don’t forget

Don’t forget to count it up
