Lyrics The Wildhearts

The Wildhearts

And The Bullshit Goes On

Life, you think it's all in your hands

You play tricks, manipulating the band

You want fame, well here you are in the track

And all without a spinal column in your back

You make waves by being chinless and weak

You want stars unless they happen to speak

You use blackmail tactics as part of your plan

To undermine the battle of the working man

So we just play and smile all day at things you say and do

And use our little victories as triumph for the few, and that means you

And the bullshit goes on

It don't matter how far you run

It's that old familiar feeling when they're all convinced you're wrong

It's just different words in the same old fucking song

And the bullshit goes on, and it goes

You pass blame because you think you're immune

And with your fingers simply be itching to reopen the wound

You go on and on and on some more

With stupid ideas that we all ignore

So take your place and hide your face and we'll get on just fine

Keep the distance, earn respect and we'll work it out in time

And the bullshit goes on

It don't matter how far you run

It's that old familiar feeling when they're all convinced you're wrong

It's just different words in the same old fucking song

And the bullshit goes on, and it goes

I want you to see some honesty, you'll believe it's true

So come on open up to me like human beings are supposed to do

And so are you!

And the bullshit goes on

It don't matter how far you run

It's that old familiar feeling when they're all convinced you're wrong

It's just different words in the same old fucking song

And the bullshit goes on, and it goes, it goes
