There's a country, You don't live there, But one day you would like to. And if you show them what you're made of, Ah, then you might do. But David, we wonder, We wonder if the thunder Is ever really gonna begin, Begin, begin Your mum says, "I've lost my boy". But she should know Why you've gone, Because again and again you've explained You're going to the National, To the National, To the National Front disco, Because you want the day to come sooner, You want the day to come sooner, You want the day to come sooner, When you've settled the score.

I am a poor freezingly cold soul
So far from where I intended to go Scavenging through life's very constant lulls So far from where I'm determined to go Wish I knew the way to reach the one I love There is no way ... Wish I had the charm to attract the one I love But you see, I've got no charm Mmm... Tonight I've consumed much more than I can hold Oh, this is very clear to you And you can tell I have never really loved You can tell, by the way, I sleep all day And all of my life no-one gave me anything No-one has ever given me anything My love is as sharp as a needle in your eye You must be such a fool To pass me by |

such a little thing
such a little thing but the difference it made was grave there you go wielding a bicycle chain oh why won't you change change and be nicer? such a little thing a gentle tone of kindness or written words on paper - can you write? How I love all of the very simple things of life (God's good air) how I love all of the very simple things of life such a little thing a fumbling politeness the difference it saved me wielding a bicycle chain "I WILL NOT CHANGE AND I WILL NOT BE NICE" Most people keep their brains between their legs (don't you find?) Leave me alone - I was only singing leave me alone because I was only singing leave me alone - I was only singing leave me alone you have just proved (again) MOST PEOPLE KEEP THEIR BRAINS BETWEEN THEIR LEGS |

We will descend On anyone unable to defend Themselves Oh ... And the songs we sing They're not supposed to mean a thing La, la, la, la ... Oh ... You're lonely Oh ... you're lonely Oh ... GET OFF THE ROOF ! Oh ... Your Arsenal !

First day with the joy you find,
Everyone lies. First day with the joy you find, Nobody minds, Everyone lies. Everyone lies, Where is the man you respect? And where is the woman you love? Third week with the joy you find, And where is the woman you love? "We won't vote Conservative, Because we never have.", Everything dies. Everyone lies, everyone lies, Where is the man you respect? And where is the woman you love? I wouldn't dream of it now.
