I say, I say, I say There's a conspiracy and tryin' for a coup I think we should be free to do what we want to do You may well roll over but don't expect me to go along Hold it, wait a minute, I ain't done nothing wrong Where will they welcome us with open arms when we are on the run To some remote island where we can have some fun What they're trying to sell us is really just a con Hasn't anybody noticed what's been going on? They shouldn't get away with it and somebody should say I shouldn't have to pack up all my bags and move away The global war on culture started with a song Hold on, wait a minute I ain't done nothing wrong Drew a line into the sand which can decide upon When you wake up in the morning what side are you on? With some surprise and deep regret I have to say so long Hold on, wait a minute, I ain't done nothing wrong Where will they welcome us with open arms when we are on the run To some remote island where we can have some fun What they're trying to sell us is really just a con Hasn't anybody noticed what's been going on? Don't feel apppreciated in a place without a heart Where there's no appreciation of the finer points of modern art But I'm not going anywhere, so if you want to start There's plenty people just like me who're glad to take my part It all began with a line in the glassy sand And the assasination of Franz Ferdinand Now I'm digging tunnels like the Vietcong Hold on, wait a minute, I ain't done nothing wrong Where will they welcome us with open arms when we are on the run To some remote island where we can have some fun And what they're trying to tell us is really just a con Hasn't anybody noticed what's been going on? So it's red-tops versus cokeheads in a cultural civil war At least I know what I'm fighting for What I'm fighting for As hypocrites and liars adopt a moral tone He who is without sin may as well go home May as well as go home It's a shame I know, but yours is the disgrace I reserve the right to get off my face To get off my face Get it
