They send me to school in the morning In our shiny silver car The bus is always crowded Lucky, I don't live very far I'm an only child It's really such a bore I share a room with my family We all sleep on the floor My parents work in a bank They met in jc My father works to pay rent For our one-room hdb Our lives are so different You have yours and I have mine We might be in the same class In school but not in life I wish I had more I stay back every day Just to finish all my work "Huh, your home only has one table?" "Yeah, is that weird?" Don't you have any dreams? Mine is to go to space I guess I want to fly a plane To see melbourne, hong kong and usa But I've never been on a plane before But I've seen the pictures On the mrt station walls Our lives are so different You have yours and I have mine We might be in the same class In school but not in life I wish I had more I am tired but I have chores I study hard to win awards I'll go to university I can barely get by with my bursary "Is it because you're rich?" "Is it because you're poor?" Our lives are so different You have yours and I have mine We might be in the same class In school but not in life I wish I had more
