Fly By Night

Built on lies and running with cheats

Have a two-for-one offer of a faulty promise

Throwaway statements to keep us sweet

There's no room for anything honest

The monies sifted, they'll take their cut

While we're kept on a hook by frenzied bottom feeders

The self righteous won't disclose they're out of touch

That's the irony that scolds but the procedure for such avid bleeders

Party slogans act as we're all unified

Always divided. Together as one

A nations heart torn apart and under qualified

There's a race for more power that needs to be won

We're on the run

From the barrel of the organisations mishandled gun

Caught in the firing line

Of nothing more than a fly by night

All around streets are left scarred

And bleed with disillusion and doubt

Damage control bankrolls the disregard

Our tyres are slashed and we're in for a blackout

Playing the dirty game in suits and ties

With crossed fingers behind their backs

Believing is deceiving whilst dominance is the prize

They'll tighten up their grip and not you a single inch of slack

Party slogans act as we're all unified

Always divided. Together as one

A nations heart torn apart and under qualified

There's a race for more power that needs to be won

We're on the run

From the barrel of the organisations mishandled gun

Caught in the firing line

Of nothing more than a fly by night

Shifty scandals that they manhandle

Make perfect examples of their personalities

Backroom deals

Digging in their heels

Profits over people is a mutual formality

Party slogans act as we're all unified

Always divided. Together as one

A nations heart torn apart and under qualified

There's a race for more power that needs to be won

We're on the run

From the barrel of the organisations mishandled gun

Caught in the firing line of nothing more

Than a fly by night
