about

I got fed up with banks, insurance corporations and government dressed up criminality so vented my frustration here

lyrics

Hi to the man in his angry world of pretences
Tripping all day in a satirical way his defences
You don’t want know why I feel so low, you think I’m senseless
Time to let you down and yes I see your frown

Ahhh haaa
You closed your mind ‘cause you think you’ll find that you’re stronger
To be so blind keeps your soul confined, taking longer
to rest in your bed with your eyes so red, little wonder
Time to let you down and take that broken crown!

Ahhh haaa
Hey! You’ve gone too far. Hey! You’ve gone too far (too far)
Hey! You’ve gone too far

In your ivory tower you’re making the people cower
The devil be your only friend

It’s never too late you can abdicate for the first time
But you’ll have to play in a different way for a lifetime
I don’t want to be led by your loathsome head on the breadline
Time to let you down
Cause I won’t be your clown!

Ahhh haaa
Hey! You’ve gone too far. Hey! You’ve gone too far (too far)
Hey! You’ve gone too far
(Just keep on turning... I only want to see you learning)
