Soft Cell - Happiness Not Included paroles de chanson

paroles de chanson Happiness Not Included - Soft Cell



We can't sanitize our history
Just because it's not what we want it to be
England was built on sorrow and pain, slavery, and ill-gotten gain
We gotta look around and recognize
Who we are now, how far we've come
Recognize those who deserve it
And live with those who don't
So wash your hands and sing happy birthday
Hand gel won't sanitize your sins
So much we enjoy are built on broken backs
We can't turn away and paper over the cracks
Before you get deluded
Read the small print of life
Happiness not included
Happiness not included
No one's gonna save us, I've come to set us free
When they're piling up their bodies and they're pointing at me
And you told me last night that I didn't have to fear
That if that is the case, just what the fuck we're doing here?
Staring at the dark, taking stock of our lives
Troopers stealing control, even sharpening our knives
Getting up and ready when it all comes down
Get ready to duck, so hit the ground
Look around now
Look around now
Look around now
Look around now
Everything and it's seen as offensive
That's why we're always on the defensive
Our social media makes us slaves
Like children we have to be told to behave
We only see in black and white
Retching up the drama for the thrill of the fight
And we kill, kill, kill in the rush of the game
Shooting all the soldiers again and again
Before you get deluded
Read the small print of life (look around now)
Happiness not included (look around now)
Happiness not included (look around now)
Times are moved in shifting sands
The future's in another lunatic's hands
It's turning on my TV again
They're watching all the people in pain
News is like crack cocaine
Everybody getting high again and again
I don't wanna know about the politician talks
I don't even know just how the magic works
Look around now
Look around now
Look around now
Look around now
So put your grief in a tweet with the crying emoji
And so many words with nothing to say
And don't look at me you Hollywood whores when you're back there sweeping the restaurant floors
Before you get deluded
Read the small print of life
Happiness not included
Happiness not included
Before you get deluded
Read the small print of life
Happiness not included
Happiness not included
Look around
