Intro

 I'm sick of working for a living

 I'm just ticking off the days till I die

 Oh, I miss you Louise, yeah...

 And the sickest little pleasures keep me going in between pulling teeth

Oh periscope up

 I've been looking for a ladder

 I need to see the commander in chief

 And remind him what was passed onto me

 Your mum don't sleep!

 And the friends you keep!

 I didn't raise a thief!

 I didn't raise a thief!

 But the leaders of the free world

 Are just little boys throwing stones

 And it's easy to ignore

 Till they're knocking on the door of your homes

 (Solo - )

 My thinking isn't driven

 But the music always gives me a lift

 I'm so easy to please, yeah

 But I think we dropped the baton like the 60's didn't happen, oh no!

Oh periscope up

 Should be looking for a ladder

 I need to see the commander in chief

 And remind him what was passed onto me

Your mum don't sleep!

 And the friends you keep!

 I didn't raise a thief!

 I didn't raise a thief!

 But the leaders of the free world

 Are just little boys throwing stones

 And it's easy to ignore

 Till they're knocking on the door of your homes

 But the leaders of the free world

 Are just little boys throwing stones

 And it's easy to ignore

 Till they're knocking on the door of your homes

Passing the gun from father to feckless son

 We're climbing a landslide where only the good die young
