What you trying to say that you haven't tried to say before?
You're just another red balloon with a lot of hot gas,
And you think you've got it worked out,
And you think you've got it made,
And you're trying to play the hero,
Oh, but you never walk home in the dark.
I think it's time for truth, and the truth is you've lost, Uncle Jimmy,
Admit you're a failure and decline with honour while you can.
And you think you've got it sussed out, (Hah!)
And you think that we're brainwashed, (No way!)
And you're trying to form a police state,
So you can rule our bodies and minds.
Whatever happened to the great empire?
You bastards have turned it into man - ure!
Tell the young to stick together now.
I bet you sleep at nights in silk sheets, and a clean mind,
While killer roam the streets in numbers, dressed in blue.
And you're trying to hide it from us,
But you know what I mean,
Bring forward the six pigs,
We wanna see them swing so high,
Liddle Towers!
And you think you've got it worked out,
And you think you've got it made,
And you're trying to play the hero,
But you never walk home in the dark.
Whatever happened to the great empire?
You bastards have turned it into man - ure!
Tell the young to stick together now.
C'mon!
