We live where rain can't escape Where if you want to go you have to wait Where authenticity is fake It goes on When most of the truths are half-baked Concrete shoes and concrete mates Antique food on silver plates It goes on It goes on Are you anti, anti, anti? Just like me, just like me Are you anti, anti, anti? Just like me Are you anti, anti, anti? Just like me, just like me Are you anti, anti, anti? Just like me Yeah there's too many snakes And too few ladders We walk underneath the streetlights wishing we Were way up on the rooftops Singing chim-chim-cheree Yeah there's too many snakes And too few ladders Too many snakes And too few ladders Invent new crimes, erect new signs 'Cause the money goes quicker when you're paying fines To the slugs in the city leaving puddles of slime It goes on Righteous fools with TT plates Predict prosperous growth, but still we wait Hemmed in cattle planning how to escape It goes on It goes on Goes on It goes on It goes on Ply me with wine and costly fun Turn me over cos I'm almost done Tickle my stomach, bury me in sun I'll sit and wait for the end to come Up on the roof the sun is shining Down on the streets it's cold and grey Cos the multiplying buildings Stop the sun from coming our way Are you anti, anti, anti? Just like me, just like me Are you anti, anti, anti? Just like me Are you anti, anti, anti? Just like me, just like me Are you anti, anti, anti? Just like me Yeah there's too many snakes And too few ladders
