Once We Were Anarchists
作词:Turner Francis Edward
The demonstrations got boring Well, it was obvious that The government was ignoring us It's hard to drag yourself through empty streets On an empty stomach and no sleep
The shortcomings got clearer As the price we paid got dearer and dearer It's supposed to be a case of give and take Well, I was feeling the give and making a mistake
And I've heard it said that the unexamined life Isn't much worth living and I'm sure they're right But it's hard to keep on fighting the good fight When no one else seems bothered, yeah When no one's on your side
I've got friends who are bankers And it's an easy rhyme to call them wankers But I must say, I envy the way that they live In a style that's all take and no give
While I'm playing the Lone Ranger Riding to the rescue of six billion strangers Armed with only unoriginal songs And a sense that something's wrong
And I must admit that I'm tired of saying 'No' all the time But I must admit that I don't really know what would be right 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网
And if politics is helping all the people Then my political career is pretty fucked Because the truth is I don't like people all that much
The times, they aren't a-changing Yeah, England's still shit and it's still raining And everybody's jaded and tired and bored And no one lifts a finger because It's just not in our culture
Our culture is carrion and we're all vultures And no one seems bothered by this state of play It seems that the stench is with us to stay
So I had a go, I tried examining life It wasn't much worth living, I guess they're right And I'm tired of fighting a fight that's not my fight But so is everybody else, we're all on the same side
I'm young enough to be all pissed off But I'm old enough to be jaded I'm of the age where I want things to change But with age my hopes have faded
I'm young and bored of being young and bored If I was old, I could say I'd seen it all before In short, I'm tired and in short I'm probably fired If the revolution doesn't want me, I don't give a shit
