Cowboys

Tell me what your speeches meant today
You didn't even write them anyway

Look into my eyes
I'm finished with your lies
But I can see
you've nothing else to say

They do your hair and make up for TV
(This is a man to be believed)
You give the people what they want to see
(A leading light of democracy)

You take me for a fool
And feed me all your rules
And then you tell me that's
how things should be

Wake up, time to see
That it isn't only me
That's tired of your simple mentality
You've all been led astray
Cos the cowboys led the way
But good guys don't
wear white in reality

Eight years is all that interests you
(The house is nice, the cars are cool)
What an end to justify what you do
(The children love the pool)

You keep your country strong
But
something's badly wrong
Do you know how much is enough for you
Well I don't think you do

Wake up, time to see
That it isn't
only me
That's tired of your, tired of your shit

Wake up, time to see
That it isn't
only me
That's tired of your simple mentality
You've all been led astray
Cos the cowboys led the way
But good guys don't wear white in reality
