Baby Blue (What Have They Been Telling You?)

Always seems to be the same round here

Town full of losers all crying in their beer

Nobody's willing to take any chance

Drown you brain in the rave machine and dance, boy dance

You got one last shot here to change your world

yeah, one last push just might make it work

But you sit on you arse watch you life drift by

Lookin' at you, tell me, should I laugh or cry

Why can't you realize it's all gone wrong

why can't you see who's laughing now

(Chorus:)

Baby blue, baby blue, what have they been telling you?

Baby blue, baby blue, what have they been telling you?

Everyday you toe the same tired line

Slave to your past you just serve your time

Stand and watch as it falls apart

They've taken your mind, your will and your heart

You got one last shot here to change your world

yeah, just get out and make it work

But you're much too scared to take the risk

In case they put your name on their endangered list

Why can't you see that it has all been lies?

Why can't you hear them laughing now?

(Chorus)

I'm not the sort of man to just leave well alone

I feel we're all owed so much more

Now they're telling us the world's gone wrong

In fact it's been like that all along

Not just the ozone but the black coal seam

We're left with the sour milk cos there's no more cream

This is our last shot to save the world

Yeah, our last effort might just make it work

But they're much too scared to commit their wealth

It's time to force some international health

When will they realize it's not too late?

I guess they never will somehow

(Chorus)

It's not all over now baby blue

It's not all over now baby blue.
