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 ooh
And remind him what was passed on to me oh
Your mum don't sleep oh
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 lttle boys throwing stones
And it's easy to ignore Till they're knocking on the door of your homes yeah
My thinking isn't driven oh
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 ooh
And remind him what was passed on to you and me oh
Your mum don't sleep oh
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 lttle 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 lttle 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
Passing the gun from father to feckless son
We're climbing a landslide where only the good die young
Passing the gun from father to feckless son
Oh periscope up
I've been looking for a ladder
I need to see the commander in chief ooh
And remind him what was passed on to you and me oh
(Passing the gun from father to feckless son)
(We're climbing a landslide where only the good die young)
