Workin' in the fields
'Til you get your back burned
Workin' 'neath the wheels
'Til you get your facts learned
Baby I got my facts
Learned real good right now
You better get it straight girl
Poor man want to be rich
Rich man want to be king
And a king ain't satisfied
'Til he rules everything
Bruce Springsteen 1978

Springsteen sang Dancing in the Dark at a Kamala rally so out of tune it sounded like a drunk dude doing an impression of the "boss."

Every yuletide season I get treated to his 'classic' - Santa Claus is comin' to town.
