Lyrics:

you might be an ambassador
to England or France
you might like to mumble
you might like to dance

you might be the heavyweight
champion of the world
you might be a socialite
with a long string of pearls

but you gotta serve somebody
yes you got to serve somebody
well it may be the devil or it may be the lord
but you gotta serve somebody

well you might be a punk rocker
dancin' on the stage
money drops at your command
women in a cage

you might be a businessman
a high-colonic freak
they might call you doctor
and they might call you chief

but you gotta serve somebody
[serve somebody]
yes you got to serve somebody
[serve somebody]
well it may be the devil or it may be the lord
but you gotta serve somebody

well you might be a state trooper
or some other kind of jerk
you might be the president
of some big t-v network

you might be rich or poor
you might be blind or lame
you might be livin' in another country
underneath another name

but you gotta serve somebody
[serve somebody]
yes you got to serve somebody
[serve somebody]
well it may be the devil or it may be the lord
but you gotta serve somebody
[serve somebody]

serve somebody
serve somebody

well you might like to wear latex
you might like to wear silk
you might like to eat big macs
you might like to eat milk

you might like to drink yoohoo
you might like to drink bread
you may be sleepin' on a floor somewhere
or in a king size bed

but you gotta serve somebody
[serve somebody]
yes you got to serve somebody
[serve somebody]
well it may be the devil or it may be the lord
but you gotta serve somebody
[serve somebody]

said you gotta serve somebody
[serve somebody]
i said you serve somebody
[serve somebody]
you gotta serve somebody
bye-bye
