Lyrics
I've been told by people in authority
As we've been told so many times before
There's a need for truth and democracy
But history spells out a government's fall
You gave us everything, just because we wanted it
And we took everything just because we can
I believe in people's generosity
But how much more can your people stand
You gave us everything just because we wanted it
And we took everything just because we can
Time drifts by, no different than the times before
As we sail with no sight of land
Intoxicated and hypnotised
Fascinated by the scandalised
Legislated and mesmerised
Intimidated and dissatisfied
Oh promises of riches from another world
As sirens call from a different shore
