Take away the rules and we get some IDIOTIC MALE with illusions of ADEQUACY
practising every form of MISCONCEPTION and won’t someone give me a clue
as to where I am going to find my very own PENIS?
It all depends on whose side you’re on if you are not on the one
you’re an enemy of the other and I cannot think of anything more INHOSPITABLE
but if you’re on MINE you seem unable to SPEAK

you’re always LOST for words when it really matters
allowing those with LOUD voices to BLEAT any manner of innuendos
so STAND UP and get ready to SPIN if you dare
no don’t GRIN way ahead of my time they said
well that’s what its like when you’re on a LADDER that reaches for the SKY
and I would die I could just fall down ALIVE
if I don’t find this country
won’t somebody give me the LEFT OVER forms to fill in so that I can get this all right?
But do you mind, I think I’m gonna just have to help myself if only you’d keep you
SHADOW to yourself and stop passing the BUCK
it’s a long time since I last had a FUCK
but it’s all just a matter of choice which is no way of saying anything at all
but I did not say that I was trying to COMPROMISE or even meet you a THIRD
of the way its not much fun getting RUN OVER this way
the BRUISES don’t show and this WAY seems to go on forever with myths
and counter myths COUNTER spies and counter INFORMERS counter
COUNTER BEURO’S some councillors got stuck in that war time ZONE
and all of THIS is supposed to make SENSE?!!!
But I’m just looking for my country

last night feels like a year has gone by but for you TIME seems to have no meaning
so just try, just try holding our BREATH for a minute or two and you say you’re
CONFUSED and lack DIRECTION?
Well the answer would bite you were it a snake its so close
everything seems so close so close so close its almost WORTH the GAMBLE
today today I could not tell if you were a boy or a girl
but you would not let me hold your hand you STOPPED everything at your HEART
you weren’t prepared to take the risk and I, I, I, I, I tried, I tried, I tried
but still could not break through and yet you still expect me to break my BACK for you
SLAY three dragons for you but
I’m just looking for my country
