Lyrics

Dreams Schemes and everythings Fill the dusty corners of your mind As cars, boats and aeroplanes Just remind you of a better time As love's hopes and everyone's Anyone worth a minute of your time When unhampered by the agents Of the governors of the faceless so opaque As bare tree's and winter winds Just confine you to - a bitter place A time you can't face A peace of your mind We should be playing in the sunshine Happy to be part of everything Not handled, greedy handlers Brought down and destroyed By their own ways Liars! Liars! - smoking on pipes Dimwit fires Who Just throw it in their way And how's your father today Was he caught in the rain? Waiting on a bed Putting up with the pain Your three wishes expire Now your back in the fire Lock the genie in the shed Put a pistol to his head Not handcuffed to some wanker Who doesn't know me (and doesn't see (that) our lives are made (on) from all the efforts Of the masses, And all the people who deserve a better fate Than a time you can't trace No peace in your mind A time you can't place Now your back in the race Your three wishes expired Now your back in the fire (Your three wishes expired Now you're back in the fire) See you just can't play Now without a say Always got to be the man Always got to have the plan- It doesn't run that way Into the ether you'll say (Your three wishes expired Now you're back in the fire) Your three wishes expired Now you're back in the fire
