from the songs album unknown
I thought that you were joking / When you said 'I want to see you / To discuss your
contribution / To the future of our nation's heart and soul / Six o'clock, my place,
Whitehall' / Well I arrived just after seven / But you said 'It doesn't
matter' / 'I understand your situation / And your image, and I'm flattered / Oh
and I'd just like to tell you / That I love all of your albums / Could you sign this for
my daughter? / She's in hospital, her name is Miriam / Now get down to the gist: / Do you
want a line of this? / Are you a (sniff) / socialist?' / 'Doin' fine, yeah! /
Buzzin' all the time / Just one hit / And I feel great / And I support / The welfare state
/ Oh, you must be socialist / 'Cos you're always off out on the piss / In your private
member's bar / Oh yes you are / Yer superstar / Well you sing about common people / And
the mis-shapes and the misfits / So can you bring them to my party / And get them all to
sniff this? / And all I'm really saying / Is come on and rock the vote for me / All I'm
really saying / Is come on roll up that note for me / The gist of all of this is / Do you
want hits or d'you want misses? / Are you a socialist, yeah / Socialist, yeah / Socialist,
yeah / Oh yeah' / 'Yeah, you can be just what you want to be / Just as long as
you don't try to compete with me / And we've waited such a long time / For the chance to
help our own kind, so now / Please come on and tow the party line / Oh you owe it to
yourself / Don't think of anybody else / And we promise we won't tell / Oh we won't tell,
and we won't sell' / No we won't / No we won't / No we won't
