Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
Born to be proud
Of what's gone before
The wind in the willows
The wolf by the door
Pounding the treadmill
The sensible way
Born to feel guilty
On worn knees we pray
Give me deliverance
From spies in the sky
Away in a manger
Away in a sty
Cold War stagnation
Iron Curtain lies
Star spangled graveyards
No nonsense replies
Sucked in by worksheets
And sucked in by wealth
Gold plated eyeballs
And heart attack health
No magic mushrooms
Just large mushroom clouds
No born again life
Beneath tricolour shrouds
Agents Of Orange
Give no second chance
They just give away seats
For the old vulture dance
And funeral directors
Work vast overtime
Embalming us all
In vodka and lime
Guys on the bonfires
Girls in the flames
We're just Simple Simons
Who love simple dames
We all flash our peace signs
But we sure like to hate
We've friends in our pockets
Foes heads on some plate
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're simple!
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
Born to be pawns
In the patriot game
All searchers of glory
All searchers of fame
Given incentives
To all go past go
Told one is our friend
And the other's our foe
No voice in the wilderness
Gets heard today
The whole World's a stage
And there's no time to play
We're caught on the barbed wire
Caught on the run
We're all over the edge
In the sights of a gun
Guys on the bonfires
Girls in the flames
We're just Simple Simons
Who love simple dames
We all flash our peace signs
But we sure like to hate
We've friends in our pockets
Foes heads on some plate
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're simple!
We're all Simple Simons
Born to be proud
Of what's gone before
The wind in the willows
The wolf by the door
Pounding the treadmill
The sensible way
Born to feel guilty
On worn knees we pray
Give me deliverance
From spies in the sky
Away in a manger
Away in a sty
Cold War stagnation
Iron Curtain lies
Star spangled graveyards
No nonsense replies
Sucked in by worksheets
And sucked in by wealth
Gold plated eyeballs
And heart attack health
No magic mushrooms
Just large mushroom clouds
No born again life
Beneath tricolour shrouds
Agents Of Orange
Give no second chance
They just give away seats
For the old vulture dance
And funeral directors

We're just Simple Simons
Who love simple dames
We all flash our peace signs
But we sure like to hate
We've friends in our pockets

We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're simple!
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons

We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're all Simple Simons
We're simple!
