What you gonna do babe? Are you gonna cry? What you gonna do before you lay down and die? Tell me anything and you know I'll doubt it Give me a secret and you know I'm gonna shout it You think I don't know you owe me Electronic eyes can't see You and Me and me and him and her, simultaneously The things that I say, when they are said Lose a different meaning from when they are read Tell me anything and you know I'll doubt it Give me a secret and you know I'm gonna shout it because I believe everything I hear on the radio I believe everything I see on the TV I believe everything I hear on the radio I believe everything I feel when I'm feeling low I believe everything I see on the TV I believe everything I read in the magazines I believe everything I hear on the radio I believe everything I feel when I'm feeling low I believe everything I see on the TV I believe everything I read in the magazines Sacrilegious Simple Strategies coming after me Tailored news that you can't choose selling fear daily A pandemic of paranoia. Get me a professor Call me a paramedic or another confessor Wage war In fact it don't matter as long as they can sell more Aren't Arabs terrified? Aren't Iraqis terrified? Don't Arab and Iraqi women weep when their children die? Does bombing strengthen their determination? What fools we are to live in a generation For which war is a computer game for our children and just an Interesting little Channel 4 news item. Every Member of Parliament tonight Who votes for the Government motion Will be consciously and deliberately accepting responsibility For the deaths of innocent people if the war begins, as I fear it will Does bombing strengthen their determination? Figure you gotta feel it out, filing around food banks Queueing for provisions while the governments build tanks A Quarantine, what does that mean? To an unpaid fulltime student nurse who cannot safely breathe? And as the mortuaries fill we drink and take another pill Cos we can not be alone with our thoughts and not want to drill A hole in our heads. We'll be obese when we're dead In the Kingdom of the Quarantine, we've bought up all the bread It's kept up frozen in a freezer in the house of a cadaver While they're filling out a body bag, the mold will start to gather On the food that they hoarded, they've been selfish and sordid It could have saved a life, it's still there when the house is boarded I hope we'll learn a lesson but my guess is that we'll laugh When the supermarkets close cos we infected all the staff Distracted by the need to achieve and greed In the Kingdom of the Quarantine We take nothing seriously We take nothing seriously I do not trust the Presidents I do not trust the government I believe everything I hear on the radio I believe everything I feel when I'm feeling low I believe everything I see on the TV I believe everything I read in the magazines I believe everything I hear on the radio I believe everything I feel when I'm feeling low I believe everything I see on the TV I believe everything I read in the magazines I believe everything I hear on the radio I believe everything I feel when I'm feeling low I believe everything I see on the TV I believe everything I read in the magazines
