Across the Border |
No-one likes to feel stupid |
Stupid is a subjective thing |
Subjective is how you feel today |
And today’s the day you’re giving up |
Kicked around, pulled apart |
Dissected, over-analysed |
The more you ask the deeper it gets |
And you can’t unpick the knot |
Why didn’t we see it in the distance? |
The chances of anything coming from Mars |
Really? |
Really? |
Is that the time? |
Smug, conceited like someone who knows a fat juicy secret |
Let us all in on the joke, Snake’s too good a name for you, mate |
Take take, take take take |
What would it take to change your mind? |
Take take, take take take |
What would it take to change your mind? |
When did you get so hard? |
Why did you stop thinking about us? |
Where were you when it all fell apart? |
What did you do to stop it happening? |
A bolt out of the blue that’s been brewing for a quarter of a century |
We’re arguing about something you can’t even see |
No-one wants to feel like they’ve given up |
No-one wants their belief system called into question |
But what would it take to change your mind? |
You’ve the right to call yourself whatever you like |
What would it take to allow everyone that privilege? |
Take take, take take take |
What would it take to change your mind? |
Take take, take take take |
What would it take to change your mind? |
Wouldn’t it be nice to go on holiday somewhere in Italy? |
How about a beer in Germany? |
Maybe we’ll all move to Spain? |
Maybe you don’t feel the same? |
Surely we all feel the same? |
Getting on a plane in the summertime what would it take to change your mind? |
I don’t want to feel useless, I want it to be fine and to be able to sleep |
tonight |
I don’t want to feel useless, I want it to be fine and to be able to sleep |
tonight |
Take take, take take take |
What would it take to change your mind? |
Take take, take take take |
What would it take to change your mind? |
Take take, take take take |
What would it take to change your mind? |
Tomorrow will be better across the border |
It’s never easy leaving across the border |
Tomorrow we’ll run faster across the border |
It’s never easy leaving |
