Hugh Cornwell - Facts And Figures lyrics

If all the food The warsmen ate was sent around the world Noone would have to work A single day If all the money In the banks was left to boy and girl Noone could then complain About their pay Facts and figures Facts and figures Filling up the pages every day Facts and figures Facts and figures Spilling out of papers every day Upon the roads The accidents They rob us of the few Wars They take away so many more As long as we don't know them They remain upon the page It's the history book picture That you saw Facts and figures Facts and figures Filling up the pages every day Facts and figures Facts and figures Spilling out of papers every day Facts and figures Facts and figures Right or wrong is difficult to say 'Cause everybody knows The way that the wind blows Facts and figures can be friends or foes Facts and figures Facts and figures Facts and figures Facts and figures Facts and figures Facts and figures Right or wrong is difficult to say 'Cause everybody knows The way that the wind blows Facts and figures can be friends or foes So try to keep your fingers crossed When listening for the bell So facts and figures don't catch you as well So facts and figures don't catch us as well So facts and figures don't catch us as well So facts and figures don't catch us as well So facts and figures don't catch us as well
