When I'm dead
|
It will be read
|
"Here Lies The Public Image"
|
5 percent human being
|
And 95 image
|
|
What you see is what you get
|
And what you get may well be worth seeing
|
But just be careful when you walk
|
On those old broken stones
|
Because they are my feelings
|
|
If I smile
|
Do not be swayed
|
I simply serve the public image
|
When all have gone
|
Just one remains
|
Thank God for the public image
|
|
What you see is what you get
|
And what you get may well be worth seeing
|
But just be careful when you walk
|
On those old broken stones
|
Because they are my feelings
|
|
Scrape beneath
|
The surface and
|
You will find more public image
|
|
I used to have
|
A childish dream
|
Until I had it kicked from me
|
I tried to pass myself off
|
As a Human being
|
But the truth soon exposed me
|
I had a love and she was very kind
|
But she was no match for the Public Image
|
|
What you see is all there is
|
And what there is may well be worth seeing
|
But just be careful what you say
|
About people like me
|
Because we don't take it lightly
|
