The fool on TV and the news of the world
Got in the house like a pigeon from hell, oh
Crescending our eyes and descended like flies
Put us back on the train, yeah

Dm A Dm A and so on
The powers that be
That forces us to live like we do
Bring me to my knees
When I see what they've done to you

I'll die as I stand here today
Knowing that deep in my heart

Therefore to ruin one
Dm

For making us

Those were the happiest days of my life
Like a brick in the baggle was your part, oh
In the wretched life of a lonely heart
