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
