Promised You The Earth
Hides a lie
In his naked eye
His tie a nasty stain
Spilt from the gravy train
Sitting in the station of his filthy mind
Speaks of facts and figures
He says tell the truth
But I've heard it all before
And I'm still waiting for the proof
He promised you the nation
He promised you the world
He promised you your freedom
He promised you the earth
He says the futures glossy
He says the future's bright
In his crumpled jacket
There's something not quite right
He stands before the country
Runs his fingers through his straw blonde hair
Do you think he'll ever listen?
Do you think he even cares?
He promised you the nation
He promised you the world
He promised you your freedom
He promised you the earth
He promised you the nation
He promised you the world
He promised you your freedom
He promised you the earth
He promised you the nation
He promised you the world
He promised you your freedom
He promised you the earth
In his naked eye
His tie a nasty stain
Spilt from the gravy train
Sitting in the station of his filthy mind
Speaks of facts and figures
He says tell the truth
But I've heard it all before
And I'm still waiting for the proof
He promised you the nation
He promised you the world
He promised you your freedom
He promised you the earth
He says the futures glossy
He says the future's bright
In his crumpled jacket
There's something not quite right
He stands before the country
Runs his fingers through his straw blonde hair
Do you think he'll ever listen?
Do you think he even cares?
He promised you the nation
He promised you the world
He promised you your freedom
He promised you the earth
He promised you the nation
He promised you the world
He promised you your freedom
He promised you the earth
He promised you the nation
He promised you the world
He promised you your freedom
He promised you the earth
