Throw It Away Lyrics - Joe Jackson

Wake up this mornin' and the paper's on the mat 

Poor gettin' poorer and the rich are gettin' fat again 

Up in the towers, all the bosses sittin' sneezin' 

A-half asleep and the rest all start to squeezin' tight 

Don't worry 'bout it baby, don't try to understand 

You got the answer in your hand 

Throw it away 

Throw it away 

Throw it away 

Throw it away 

Throw it away! 

Wake up this morning, there's a letter on the mat 

Big brother want to know where little brother's at again 

Life is a piece of paper, goes on forever 

Sign on the dotted line or end up in the river drowned 

Don't worry 'bout it baby, don't try to understand 

You got the answer in your hand 

Throw it away 

Throw it away 

Throw it away 

Throw it away 

Throw it away! 

Wake up this morning, there's a letter on the mat 

Big brother want to know where little brother's at again 

Life is a piece of paper, goes on forever 

Sign on the dotted line or end up in the river drowned, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down 

Don't worry 'bout it baby, don't try to understand 

You got the answer in your hand 

Throw it away 

Throw it away 

Throw it away 

Throw it away 

Why don't ya throw it away 

Throw it away 

J-just throw it away 

Throw it away 

Throw it away!
