| Well, the girl doesn’t get it
|
| And you can’t ever tell her
|
| She will go with whoever wants her
|
| It’s a myth that they’re selling
|
| That there’s one perfect fella
|
| Take the pick of the cherries — go slow!
|
| There’s a world through the front door
|
| There are people who need more
|
| There is love in the supermarket
|
| I got hopes for the future
|
| And it doesn’t need money
|
| And it doesn’t need two-faced liars
|
| One face is smiling
|
| Telling us to be afraid
|
| Painting a world of darkness
|
| But the other face is hidden
|
| And the eyes are looking back in time
|
| Gazing out on a fading empire
|
| You’re alone in the dark night
|
| Sitting down with your worries
|
| 'Cause your glorious youth got fucked up
|
| You’re a train in the siding
|
| You’re a car in a pileup
|
| You should dance till your heart is joyful
|
| I don’t want to be aloof
|
| Wear the glasses of untruth
|
| I just want to become immortal
|
| They’ll take profits over people
|
| They will make the country great again
|
| Just as long as it’s white and ugly
|
| Fear the immigrant workforce
|
| Fear the kids raised on the internet
|
| They are scared if they can’t control you
|
| Are you living or waiting
|
| For the time to get better?
|
| Between sorrow and nothing, choose pain
|
| If compassion was honoured
|
| All our dumb human problems
|
| Would belong in a bin marked history
|
| We will shake hands politely
|
| Feel the pull of attraction
|
| 'Cause love is our consolation |
