The Changing Room - Zephaniah Job lyrics

Artist: The Changing Room

album: Picking Up The Pieces


Zephaniah Job, they said, he's the man you need
You'll find him in Port Perou and he'll help you guaranteed
As long as there's a profit
A proper tidy sum
He'll find a way to fix it
A way to overcome
His name is whispered everywhere and always linked to wealth
Rich man and the poor alike are heard to toast his wealth
The landlords, and the sailors, the men who mend the nets
The merchants from across the sea - all are in his debt
Zephaniah, Zephaniah can I have a short term loan?
You can take a healthy profit out my assets for your own
I swear I will repay you, every penny, every pound
Zephaniah, turn me around!
He taught my son to read and write before he went to sea
Trelawney trusts him with his cash - if he does so do we!
With him on side, you'll prosper - the law you needn't fear
The smugglers' banker that he is makes matters disappear
Zephaniah, Zephaniah, Zephaniah bail me out!
I've been accused of smuggling, they said there was no doubt!
Now I'm locked up in a cellar deep beneath the ground
Zephaniah turn me around!
They say he has a temper, killed a man in rage
There's an element of truth in that, I'm prepaired to wage
But the fugitive from Agnes, his past we can ignore
He's turned his fortunes right around
And those of many more
Zephaniah, Zenphaniah will you help me to expand
My little family business moving Spanish contraband?
I call myself a merchant, a really like the sound
Zephaniah turn me around!
Zephaniah, Zephaniah can I have a short term loan?
You can take a healthy profit out my assets for your own
I swear I will repay you, every penny, every pound
Zephaniah, turn me around!
