lyrics

Oh yes be thick skinned
A joke’s a joke
Please weep like a good ‘un
It’s not a lie
If you gradually believe it
You can’t deny
It rather makes you look a tit
To find away in
No don’t emote
I’m a borderline Jesus
Won’t you share my load
Like a modern day Christ
You can always kid a little
To get a rise
From the hordes that’s on the fiddle

Be the one who takes the masses on
They think they’ve won
When it’s only just begun
I’ll be the one who takes the bastards on
They think they’ve won
When it’s only just begun

We’ll rule like kings
Like good ol’ times
Cut the apron strings
To think’s a crime
1984
I ran my peepers through the pages
What good’s that for?
Catching up with all the papers
Such simple things
Bred foot for foot
Lacking age and religion
And truth in muck
To quantify
All the changes that they’re freeing
Oh whilst they cry!
They’re all weasels dressed in linen
Be A Good Martyr
Minds are good for speaking just anything
