lyrics

You can be the winner
And you can be the best
You can speak the truth to me
I see it in your eyes, mate
I know you're going to say some stupid lie
Are the sucking our country dry
In a cold black wave come from over the sea
It's so obvious if you can think and feel
How many would die
Just to try to take the crumbs from me
And just keep chipping away at their mortality
Am I proud to watch you sink?

Well everyone agrees that they find you
So innocent and sweet, I do believe
I believe that deep inside
There's an anger I don't understand
You close your eyes
To a sea of lost humanity
Every day you tell a lie
You believe each word in every headline

Well I can read the papers just as clear as you
And I distinctly recall my fears run deep
Every time I have to pass a gang in the street
I'm telling you Lee, when I see their faces I can barely explain
Where their motivations lie
Well if our cliffs are white
And our fields are green and gold
And our faces are white, so white and proud man
And when I'm cut down in the street it's all I can do
To make my country proud and accept the truth
I'm not proud of you

Well everyone agrees that they find you
So innocent and sweet, I do believe
I believe that deep inside
There's an anger I don't understand
You close your eyes
To a sea of lost humanity
Every day you tell a lie
You believe each word in every headline

You can make it matter
That the papers are liars
If your trust has a price
You should spend it better
