Paul Samwell-Smith - Fallen on Hard Times lyrics

Fallen on hard times --- but it feels good to know That milk and honey's just around the bend Running on bad lines --- we'd better run as we go Tear up, tear up the overdraft again Oh, dear Prime Minister --- it's all such a mess Go right ahead and pull the rotten tooth Oh, Mr. President --- you've been put to the test Come clean, for once, and hit us with the truth Looking for sunshine --- oh but it's black and it's cold Yet, you say that milk and honey's just round the bend Giving us a hard time, my friends Handing us the same line again Fallen on hard times --- and there's nowhere to hide Now they've re-possessed the Rolls Royce and the mink Turning on the peace sign --- and it's back to the wood Soon there will be raised a holy stink Somebody wake me. I've been sleeping too long Oh, I don't have to take this lying down You can keep your promises. Shove 'em where they belong Don't ask me to the party --- won't be around
