Nightmares, oh nightmares come on now Getting my days all wrong now Risen from prison an outlaw Spending our time in the lion's jaw In the end you sink or swim, I'm eager, I'm eager
Loving, more loving, come on now Socially biting your tongue now Run down, oh run down old houses Feeding the cats to the mouses
Oh take aim now, oh take aim now Can you see me in the way now? Oh take aim now, oh take aim now Gotta get us out of here
Drop them and give them star prizes Lock them away in high rises Held off and called on by truncheons Rattling keys to the dungeons
Oh take aim now, oh take aim now Can you see me in the way now? Oh take aim now, oh take aim now Gotta get us out of here
Don't take me over I bid you all farewell, I've got to leave Tears on my shovel Switch me off today
Oh take aim now, oh take aim now Can you see me in the way now? Oh take aim now, oh take aim now Gotta get us out of here
Oh take aim now, oh take aim now Can you see me in the way now? Oh take aim now, oh take aim now Gotta get us out of here
Don't take me over I bid you all farewell, I've got to leave
