You were born with football boots and a sun tan complexion 
You once thought that on reflection, you'd really got it made 
You shrugged and smiled and made the usual excuses 
You suffered small abuses, and settled for their pay 
You want to learn to live like earnerest the crat (an aristocrat) 
You bought your girlfriends earrings well that soon put paid to that 
and if the whole world came crashing, down around your ears 
You could dream of stuck old wallpaper and crystal chandeliers 
You cashed in your cards now you want to buy some glamour 
You really are enamoured, with that new soap on a rope 
A thousand fat comedians came in disguised as clerics 
They got you in histerics, and walked off with your soul 
and with that cheap, skate, royalty, you get your flag and wave 
Well I saw you on TV grinning at the motorcade 
Pretty soon we'll hang the traitors, string them up like drapes 
So we can ride around like Steve McQueen in the great escape 
You hung around to long, your mother read your letters 
You grinned like a go-getter, come and got and gone 
The time the morning slips, blends into your wallpaper 
and once you could escape her, but where did you go wrong 
and your fathers at the factory that makes money seeling guns 
To fight the wars that spends the lives of all the peoples sons 
Pretty soon we'll hang the traitors, and we'll string them up like drapes 
So we can ride around like Steve McQueen in the great escape 
You were born with football boots and a sun tan complexion 
You once thought that on reflection, you'd really got it made 
You once thought that on reflection, you'd really got it made
