Count It Up

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 ever-growing list of
 Things you can't claim all the credit for
 If your mother had a job
 And your dad had a job
 When you were growing up then count that up
 'Cause pounds and pennies aren't the only kind of capital
 If you've ever visited another
 Country and waltzed through passport control
 Then count that up
 Put one more stamp in the book you'd like to call I Own 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 can utilise your democratic
 Power for the good of somebody else
 Then try to
 Count
 Count
 Count
 Count it up
 I'm quite an old-fashioned fellow
 I am not averse to owning up
 Can't we give each other
 The tiniest benefit of the doubt?
 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 matters
 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 luxury of turning down a job
 Count that up
 (Count it up)
 If you had books and newspapers in your house when you were a kid
 Count that up
 (Count it up)
 Don't forget
 Don't forget
 Don't forget to count it up
 (Count it up)
