We Need to Know
We need to know that
We demand to know this
Is there a man on the moon
Will there be heavenly bliss
Will you all burn in hell
Or by a nuclear strike
Will the Sahara freeze over
Will the equator have ice
When will the world end
when you call it a day
When will your wind stop
When will you rot and decay
We need to know answers
And we demand to know fact
You’re evading our questions
and we’ve never had tact
Don’t you know that the worlds flat
And you are about to drop off
Separations no answer
For a Union of toffs
Stand on you own feet
How are you going to do that
When you’ve a land full of mice
and we have all the fat cats
You never answered
Don’t you hear what we say
Armageddon is coming
and It’s the end of all days
We always say You
When we’re talking bout us
and we really don’t need you
that’s why we make such a fuss
And although you are worthless
we would love you to stay
You are such a huge burden
So Please don’t go away
Destitution is calling
and the economies shite
But if you really do leave us
Who will turn on our lights?
