歌詞

So I water my plants with Evian A brand new Dyson, that is decadent Read the papers and the business section Check out the tessas and the pensions Call my friends and they're all right So I pray for the safety of the night Today a poet who can't play guitar Tomorrow Steve Ovett has injured his calf Next year the world's greatest politician Yesterday the boy who once had a mission I don't wanna be a prologue to history A prologue to histo.. Remember ethnic cleansing in the Highlands No one says a thing in the middle of England I'm bruised fruit but still taste so nice But if you look at me, you better look twice I'm talking rubbish to cover up the cracks An empty vessel who can't make contact Today a poet who can't play guitar Tomorrow Phil Bennet's playing outside half Next year the world's greatest politician Yesterday the boy who once had a mission I don't wanna be a prologue to history A prologue to history A prologue to history A prologue
