But he lost a lot, those capitalists
He's read you every book that you'd ever list him
And now he'll put you back up there on your shelf

You're the government, darling, you're sick of yourself
Yeah, you're sick of yourself
You're the government, darling, the government, darling
You're sick of yourself, yeah you're sick of yourself
You're the government, darling

What would the powers that be do without you Dad?

Yeah, you're sick of yourself

You're the government, darling, the government, darling
You're sick of yourself, a fucking government, darling

You're the government, darling, you're sick of yourself
Yeah, you're sick of yourself
You're the government, darling, you're sick of yourself
Yeah, I'm serious

The government, darling
The government, darling
The government, darling
The government, darling
The government, darling
The government
