Here I go, back again, sliding off the ceiling Was I gone for long or did I just flick the switch Across the street, away from me A man is singing sympathy for the devil And he’s getting all the words wrong His newspaper flies desperately But words aren’t wings like gravity They’ll keep you here It’s a theory to subscribe to But you know you’re being lied to So keep your picture clear Stay awake, the lines are drawn You’re never right until you’re wrong in the eyes of the world And a picture tells a thousand lies Little dots in black and white, you’ve no idea The strongest will survive But it’s the scum that always rises So keep your picture clear You talk just like a diplomat But hide the gun behind your back And leaders need a bloody war Congratulations this is yours Looking through the history books Of liars, cheats and pretty crooks They’ll print your picture clear So close another file Of revolution turned to style We’re so tired of walking blind Growing fat in hungry times Keep your picture clear
