Opportunity

Born in the middle of a second big baby boom
Those noisy boys just might have spoken up too soon
Now I'm looking for a little girl, I wonder where she's gone
Big money for families having more than one
Opportunity, opportunity
This is your big opportunity
They shop around
follow you without a sound
Whatever you do now
Don't turn around
Whatever happened to the pride of the nation?
They say, ";just wait until you break formation";
She was sitting pretty on a velvet cushion
But her bedroom eyes were like a button she was pushing
She said, ";When they get to Dover they'll be be taking over";
I said I'd come to her defense and then she pulled me over
Chorus
I'm in the foxhole, I'm down in the trench
I'd be a hero but I can't stand the stench
The Fitness Institute was full of General Motormen
And the ";Hello House of Beauty"; wouldn't stand a chance with them
The chairman of this boredom is a company collector
I'd like to be his funeral director
Chorus
Please don't turn around...
