APATHY
 

 Drink, sex, cigarettes 
 Ford Cortina, household pets 
 Bombs? War? Famine? Death? 
 An apathetic public couldn't care less 

The public watches itv 
Reads the sun drinks cups of tea 
Two star family stay content 
Their lives controlled by parliament 
Well daddy's lost his job again 
Because he never had no brain 
He only lives to watch tv his life 
Controlled by apathy 

 Drink, sex, cigarettes 
 Ford Cortina, household pets 
 Bombs? War? Famine? Death? 
 An apathetic public couldn't care less 

The russians seem so far away 
The government seems to be ok 
The papers never mention war cos 
The people that they cater for have got- 

 Drink, sex, cigarettes 
 Ford Cortina, household pets 
 Bombs? War? Famine? Death? 
 An apathetic public couldn't care less 

The things you never knew were there 
Or was it that you didn't care? 
The biggest problem face to face 
An apathetic human race 

 Drink, sex, cigarettes 
 Ford Cortina, household pets 
 Bombs? War? Famine? Death? 
 An apathetic public couldn't care less 

Fade away we live we die 
And in between 
We sit and wonder why 
Why must we someday die? 

Tried and tested we live our lives 
Like our dear parents did tied down 
And restricted of gods and guns 
Do we need to die 
For christs sake or for anyone? 
They call it religion and so we pray 
That god will save us from our evil ways 
They call it self-decay 
We live we die in fear of gods and guns 
And never knowing why 
Why must we someday die? 
So live your life in fear of no-one 
We must have our say 
Before we fade away
