I Ain't Thick, It's Just a Trick |
Oh yeah? |
Well I’ve got it all up here, see? |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
When they think they’ve got it all out there, see? |
They can fuck off, 'cause they ain’t got me |
They can’t buy my dignity |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
Let me tell you, I’ve got it all up here? |
Tried to get me with a T.V. show |
But I wouldn’t have none of it, no, no, no |
Standards and values on a black and white screen |
Sarah Farah Fawcett acting mean |
She’s got the lot, that’s what |
They want you to think |
Read between the lines |
You’ll see the missing link |
She’s just a fucking puppet |
In their indoctrination plan |
«Be like me girls and become a real man,» |
Live to the full, always act flash |
Don’t use your brains when |
Your body makes the splash |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
Well I’ve got it all up here, see? |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
When they think they’ve got it all out there, see? |
They can fuck off, 'cause they ain’t got me |
They can’t buy my dignity |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
Let me tell you, I’ve got it all up here? |
Tried to get me in the supermarket store |
Bought what I wanted, they they said «buy more.» |
Mountains of crap that nobody really needs |
Gaily coloured wrappers to suit assorted greeds |
They’ve got the lot, that’s what |
They want you to think |
Read between the lines |
You’ll see the missing link |
Buy this product, pay for the crap |
Quarter for the product |
Three quarters for the wrap |
Be a happy family, like the people on the pack |
Pay up to the profit, and you’ll never look back |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
Well I’ve got it all up here, see? |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
When they think they’ve got it all out there, see? |
They can fuck off, 'cause they ain’t got me, they can’t buy my dignity |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
Let me tell you, I’ve got it all up here? |
Tried to get me with their learning |
And their books |
Deep understanding and intelligent looks |
All of the time, they never saw me |
They were just looking for what |
They wanted to see |
They’ve got the lot, that’s what |
They want you to think |
Read between the lines |
You’ll see the missing link |
Books are easy backs for what |
They want to do to you |
Bind you up in slavery for the privileged few |
They’ll prove their lies with history |
Say «that's the way it always was |
Accept the shit and slavery, be one of us.» |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
Well I’ve got it all up here, see? |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
When they think they’ve got it all out there, see? |
They can fuck off, 'cause they ain’t got me |
They can’t buy my dignity |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
Let me tell you, I’ve got it all up here? |
Tried to get me with religion and with christ |
Said I’d get to heaven if I acted real nice |
But they were just preparing a crucifix for me |
A life of guilt, of sin, of pain, of holy misery |
They’ve got the lot |
That’s what they want you to think |
Read between the lines |
You’ll see the missing link |
The bible’s just a blue print |
For their morality scene |
Just another load of shit on how it’s never been |
They stand there in the pulpit |
Doling out their lies |
Offering forgiveness |
Then they talk of eyes for eyes |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
Well I’ve got it all up here, see? |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
When they think they’ve got it all out there, see? |
They can fuck off, 'cause they ain’t got me |
They can’t buy my dignity |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
Let me tell you, I’ve got it all up here? |
Tried to get me, but I won’t be got |
Say I’m a misfit but I say I’m not |
I never set out to profit from another |
Those smarmy bastards would steal |
From their mother |
They’ve got the lot, that’s what |
They want you to think |
Read between the lines |
You’ll see the missing link |
They plundered and slaughtered |
In the name of truth |
Acceptance of normality is |
What they want from you as proof |
They think they’ve got the answers |
But there’s something that they miss |
Their cup which overfloweth, is JUST FULL UP OF PISS |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
Well I’ve got it all up here, see? |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
When they think they’ve got it all out there, see? |
They can fuck off, 'cause they ain’t got me |
They can’t buy my dignity |
Oh yeah? |
Oh yeah? |
Let me tell you, I’ve got it all up here, see? |
