All our lives we’ve dreamed about it
Just to find that it was never real
This sure ain’t no great Valhalla [bad word] closer each turn of the wheel
Forlorn, adrift on seas of beige
In this our Golden Age

Even in our darkest hour
Never thought that it could get so bad
Bullied, suckered, pimped and patronised
Every day your tawdry little lives
So loose your head
And step within
The silence deafening

Now you saw [bad word] 
And I saw [bad word] 
We all saw [bad word] 
But we still bought it
Now you saw [bad word] 
And I saw [bad word] but still [bad word] full steam ahead

In and out of consciousness
It breaks my heart to see you like this
Crying, wringing hands and cursing fate
Always so little far too late
It’s 3am I’m wide awake
There’s still one call to make

Now you saw [bad word] 
And I saw [bad word] 
We all saw [bad word] 
But we still bought it
Now you saw [bad word] 
And I saw [bad word] 
We all saw [bad word] 
But we still bought it

Now you saw [bad word] 
And I saw [bad word] 
But [bad word] full steam
Now you saw [bad word] 
And I saw [bad word] but still [bad word] full steam
Now you
And I
We all saw [bad word] 
But we still bought it
Now you
And I
We all saw [bad word] 
But we still bought it
