They're kissing babies and telling me lies
|
They're taking over my television
|
They're making noises that sound so wise
|
Trying to influence my decision
|
Rituals old fashioned
|
With speeches so proud and passionate
|
Hope reigns, fears rule
|
I may be crazy but I'm not such a fool
|
No such fool
|
|
Red day on blue street
|
And this world promises everything
|
Old shoes on new feet again
|
Nothing changes
|
Red day on blue street
|
|
Here comes a man with a face so sincere
|
Here comes another with power on his mind
|
Both with a want for a word in my ear
|
Both with a message of hope for my kind
|
Heads of this nation
|
Fight lies with misinformation and
|
This gives, that takes
|
One or the other for the difference it makes
|
None at all
|
|
Red day on blue street
|
And this world promises everything
|
Old shoes on new feet again
|
Nothing changes
|
Red day on blue street
|
|
We are the chosen ones
|
You have asked us to serve you
|
We deserve you
|
It's going the way that we said it would
|
We say that you never had it so good
|
No one's a loser who plays our game
|
The difference is clear, we just changed our name
|
Nobody knows that it's just the same
|
Red day on blue street
|
Or how about
|
Blue day on red street
|
It doesn't matter, it really doesn't
|
It doesn't matter, it really doesn't
|
|
Somebody showing me the magical way
|
Somebody waving the key to my chains
|
They must believe I was born yesterday
|
They must believe I've got sand for my brains
|
Members historical
|
Woo me with words rhetorical
|
Blood runs, mud flies
|
Can't see a thing for the wool in my eyes
|
In my eyes
|
|
Red day on blue street
|
And this world promises everything
|
Old shoes on new feet again
|
Nothing changes
|
Red day on blue street
|
This world promises everything
|
Old shoes on new feet again
|
Nothing changes
|
Red day on blue street...
