Used Cars

Flashback unforeseen
Tittle-tattle tinsel dream
Greetings, punter, step aside
We've got a long way still to go
Our position is unkind
Honesty so hard to find
Sandcastles swept by tide
For the life of me I'll never know

Is this the way it should be?
Hallelujah, I've seen the light!
Round the corner, taxes follow me
Just like death comes after life

Used cars (used cars)
Used cars (used cars)
They end up costing more in the long run
Used cars and new cars
They all break down

Brussels, what a joke
Children of Marx on coke
Letter bombs to heads of state
Leave everyone up to his job
Against the wall like sardines
Inflation reigning supreme
Big Brother stands at gate
We're running out of places to rob

Still the masses clap and cheer
Another born everyday
Equality speaking loud and clear
Shooing refugees away

Used cars (used cars)
Used cars (used cars)
They end up costing more in the long run
Used cars and new cars
They all break down

And if they say it's alright
Who are we to argue?
What do we know?
Let them say it's alright
Well, how can we see behind blindfolds?

Stuck up in this joint
Holiness scum, what's the point?
Promising heaven delight
These crowds make me feel so alone
Jump off the bridge, count to three
Sordid cups of Jasmine tea
Hangman's noose pressed on tight
Here's permission to cast the first stone

I must be the biggest sap
To believe everything I've heard
Lost my way, I really need a map
Now that my judgement's impaired

Used cars (used cars)
Used cars (used cars)
They end up costing more in the long run
Used cars and new cars
They all break down

Used cars (used cars)
Used cars (used cars)
If you want to be cheated, hop along
Used cars and new cars
They need rebound
