lyrics

It's All About You! - Feb 2018:

(V)
Well I don't know what to do,
'cause I really don't trust you.
Our leaders don't have time,
Are you gonna walk the line?

(V)
Where's all the money gone?
And where did it all go wrong?
The cuts that don't make sense
Have left us in a mess.

(P-C)
As I lie here thinking...
My respect is sinking...
Why do you let us down?

(MAIN)

(V)
So I know you think it's ok,
And I know you say we're fine,
But you're running out of fight,
And we're running out of time.

(V)
And I know we voted you in,
But you had a secret plan,
And the more you promise change
The more things stay the same

(P-C)
As I lie here thinking...
My respect is sinking...
Why do you let us down?

(V)
Yet for all your privileged life
You still take all you can
There's no honour in your ways
And the system doesn't change

(V)
When I see you on TV
All your words they flow so well
But the truth is hard to find!
So you can go to hell!

(P-C)
As I lie here thinking...
My respect is sinking...
Oh! Why do you let us down?

(LEAD BREAK)

(V)
You decide what's good for us
From the safety of your tower
Your words affect us all
But you're blinded by the power

(V)
Well I know you-don't-think about us
And you never-take-the-blame
What about us?
Ohh!
It's not about us!

(V)
All your sordid words and deeds
Yet we are jailed for less
No judgement or control
You're such a moral mess.

(V)
So you send us off to war
to fight people we don't know
Some just don't come back
Yet your kind never go!

(P-C)
As I lie here thinking...
My respect is sinking...
Why do you let us down?

It's all about you!!
