Boot Stamping on a Human Face Forever lyrics

"Drop dead, it doesn't matter," she said

"It only hurts when I laugh," she said

Sometimes, it's never a crime

To spend the day in bed

She made certain that the curtains were red

To dream better by the light they would shed

She leaned back, tilted her head

And this is what she said:

"You can't win! Think it over again

I can't win! Look at the trouble I'm in

We can't win! And we're stuck here together

Yeah, I hope it will last forever"

"Don't ever dare to hope," he said

"So I'll never let down too bad

I know there’s nowhere to go

So I'll just stay here instead"

He knew better than to pull on a thread

They unravel like the thoughts in his head

He looked out, it filled him with dread

And this is what he said"

"You can't win! Think it over again

I can't win! Look at the trouble I'm in

We can't win! And we're stuck here together

Yeah, I hope it will last forever"

With good books and looks on their side

And hearts bursting with national pride

They sang songs that went along for the ride

And the other side complied

They said, "Hey, man, where do you reside?"

And "Could it be Mother Superior lied?"

And "Is it possible too many have died?"

It's only natural to reply:

"You can't win! Think it over again

I can't win! Look at the trouble I'm in

We can't win! And we're stuck here together

Yeah, I hope it will last forever"
