The Partisans - Blind Ambition lyrics

Blind Ambition I woke up in the morning I was looking for a sign I thought I was doing well and everything was fine But as the hours past and it did not last The people laughed as they walked past They looked at me strange as they walked out of range I heard their idle threats try to put me to the test I was up all day and I was up all night Wondering when things would turn out right My heart it bleeds for those who cannot see the right from wrong They can't find a way out though they say they are strong Contented and confined to a life of misery Like a blind mans ambition to swim the raging sea I did my best to beat the rest, to be a man and work it out But people said I was going mad That I'd lost all sanity that I ever had Was it the d** or was it the pressure could have been life on the never never Plastic people were all around Happy with their dreams and the safe pop sound Don't put me down cos I'm different to you Don't slag me off and I won't slag you Beat me up if it pleases you You are Mr Nobody I can see through you You've got your car and you've got your house You're kids are very happy in the happy happy house A holiday in Spain you need a break Dancing in the Discos until the day break Hit your kids if they step out of line send them to school make sure they do fine..
