Lyrics Skunk Anansie

Skunk Anansie

I Believed In You

I’d like to invite you

To this pretty little thing

Where the fruits of your labors

Are eaten by the queen

Yeah I’d like to bequest you

A seat with greedy boys

But I’m sorry,

I’ma stop you, at the door

I believed in you

Well, I was wrong

I believed you’d make me better

I was wrong

I believed you’d shine your light and save my world

Like Superman or God

I believed in you

Well, I was wrong

Will you do me the favor?

Go slit your skinny throat

Let your blood flow freely

So all your boys can choke

As I rise to defeat you

On revolution role

Where your rules and your failures

Will show

I believed in you

Well, I was wrong

I believed you’d make me better

I was wrong

I believed you’d shine your light and save my soul

Like Superman or God

I believed in you

Well, I was wrong

Oh I hope, when you’re sleeping

Your guns are close at hand

Who knows who’s cheating

To steal your contraband

That you gained in abundance

From cattle living poor

One day the would take it, no more

I believed in you

Well, I was wrong

I believed you’d make me better

I was wrong

I believed you’d shine your light and save my soul

Like Lucifer or God

I believed in you

Well, I was wrong

I believed in you

Well, I was wrong

I believed you’d make me better

I was wrong

I believed you’d shine your light and save my soul

Like Superman or God

I believed in you

Well, I was wrong
