   My     orders  come from high above me     About a foot   or two above me

The merry band of  "How are you's" in tweedy suits and pointy shoes
They offer me a ride in style and something sweet to make me smile
I hate to hurt their feelings so but I'm supposed to tell them no
My parents say the world is cruel, I think that they prefer it cruel
Thanks but no thanks, anyway I know that you're all OK, but
My orders come from high above me, about a foot or two above me

Just keep right on walking (x4)
