Fallen On Hard Times

Fallen on hard times --- but it feels good to know

That milk and honey's just around the bend.

Running on bad lines --- we'd better run as we go,

Tear up, tear up the overdraft again.



Oh, dear prime minister --- it's all such a mess.

Go right ahead and pull the rotten tooth.

Oh, mr. president --- you've been put to the test.

Come clean, for once, and hit us with the truth.



Looking for sunshine --- oh but it's black and it's cold

Yet, you say that milk and honey's just round the bend.

Giving us a hard time, my friends

Handing us the same line again.



Fallen on hard times --- and there's nowhere to hide

Now they've re-possessed the rolls royce and the mink.



Turning on the peace sign --- and it's back to the wood.

Soon there will be raised a holy stink.



Somebody wake me. i've been sleeping too long.

Oh, i don't have to take this lying down.

You can keep your promises. shove `em where they belong.

Don't ask me to the party --- won't be around.
