I'm pushed and pulled and shunted
Man-handled and man-hunted
By those faceless names
You've got nine lives
I've got eight
I just can't wait
To lock the door
And throw the keys away
I'll call as soon as it's over
Let's wait until the world is sober

The world is wide
Manhattan chase
Misguided missles spin in space
Feel like a sundial in the shade
Where flowers fade
I feel like the poor relation
Passing through an empty station
On an empty track
I'm half poverty
Half oysters
No morals
Tarnished laurels
Going nowhere fast
You don't get smoke without a fire
Next time I'll vote for Billy Liar
The world is wide
Manhattan chase
Misguided missles spin in space
Feel like a sundial in the shade
Where flowers fade

The world is wide
Manhattan chase
Misguided missles spin in space
Feel like a sundial in the shade
Where flowers fade

I hate liars
I hate cheats
Waving flags and saving nations
Goodbye love
Goodbye peace
I hate war
It ruins converstation

I hate liars
I hate cheats
Waving flags and saving nations
Goodbye love
Goodbye peace
I hate war
It ruins converstation
I hate liars
I hate cheats
Goodbye love

I hate liars
I hate cheats
Waving flags and saving nations
Goodbye love
Goodbye peace
I hate war
It ruins converstation

I hate liars
I hate cheats
Waving flags and saving nations
Goodbye love
Goodbye peace
I hate war
It ruins converstation
