Lightning Seeds

Im pushed and pulled and shunted,
man-handled and man-hunted,
by those faceless names.
Youve got nine lives,
Ive got eight,
I just cant wait
to lock the door,
and throw the keys away.
Ill call as soon as its all over,
Lets wait until the World is sober.
The World is wide,
Manhattan chase,
misguided missiles spin in space,
[I] feel like a sundial in the shade,
where flowers fade...
I feel like a poor relation,
passing through an empty station,
on this empty track.
Im half poverty,
half oysters,
no morals,
tarnished laurels,
going nowhere fast.
You dont get smoke without a fire,
next time Ill vote for Billy Liar.
I hate liars,
I hate cheats,
waving flags and saving nations,
Goodbye love, Goodbye Peace,
I hate war,
it ruins conversation.
