Robbie Williams - Advertising Space (BBC Top of the Pops Christmas Special) Lyrics

Lyrics Advertising Space (BBC Top of the Pops Christmas Special) - Robbie Williams



There's no Earthly way of knowing
What was in your heart when it stopped going
The whole world shook
A storm was blowing through you
Waiting for God to stop this
And up to your neck in darkness
Everyone around you was corrupted
Saying something
There's no dignity in death
To sell the world your last breath
They're still fighting over
Everything you left, oh
I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space, and
No one learned from your mistakes
We let our profits go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is advertising space
Through your eyes, the world was burning
"Please be gentle, I'm still learning"
You seemed to say
As you kept turning up
They poisoned you with compromise
At what point did you realise
Everybody loves your life
But you, oh
Special agent for the man
Through Watergate and Vietnam
No one really gave a damn
Did you think the CIA did?
I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space, and
No one learned from your mistakes
We let our profits go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is advertising space
No one learned from your mistakes
We let our profits go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is advertising space
I've seen your daughter
Man, she's cute
I was scared, but I wanted to
Boy, she looks a lot like you
