Benny Andersson - Emba**y Lament lyrics

[CIVIL SERVANTS] Oh my dear, how boring He's defecting Just like all the others He's expecting Us to be impressed (With) What (he's) Done (here) But (He) Hasn't stopped to think about the paperwork His gesture causes We've an emba**y to run here If these people can't strike blows for freedom With a valid visa We don't need 'em If we seem off-hand then Please remember this Is nothing very special He's the fourth we've had since last November Who do these foreign chappies think they are And when he's Safely in the west he'll be the heroe to discuss The media will lionise him Fame and Fortune plus No-one will recall it's thanks to us Have you an appointment with the consul If you don't we know what his response'll be He will not see you With respect it Buggers Up his very taxing schedule Pushing peace and understanding Let us hope this won't affect it Far too many jokers cross the border Not a single document in order Russia must be empty Though we're all for basic Human rights it makes you wonder what they built the Berlin Wall for Who do these foreign chappies think they are And when you've Filled in all the forms And been pa**ed clear of all disease Debriefed, debugged, dedrugged, disarmed and disinfected, please Don't forget the guys who cut your keys
