The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band - No Matter Who You Vote For, The Government Always Gets In lyrics

Stanshall Preside!.....Order!.....Order! Noises on the radio, megaphones on cars Sermons from the street of shame, know-it-alls in bars Posters in suburbia, experts on TV Don't let them disturb-i-ya They're just the powers that be Hey-Ho! Don't worry! Nobody can win! (Hey-Ho! Hey-Ho!) No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in Hey-Ho! Oh great, great slumbering nation Awake! Set yourself free Oh! Smell the comforting bacon, taste the bromide tea And give a little chirrup as I ladle on the syrup Promises are cheap Let me bear your crosses, make me boss of bosses Then you go back to sleep (Ha ha ha) Hey-Ho! Don't worry! Pop your cross in the bin (Hey-Ho! Hey-Ho!) No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in Hey-Ho! Hey-Ho! Hey-Ho! Hey-Ho! Memories of a finer place in comfortable Shangri-La Then they too have their Shangri-Las Shangri-La La La! See them in the public eye oozing oily charm Hear them all personify down on Animal Farm Dog eat dog but co*k and bull isms are the game Hey-Ho! No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in Hey-Ho! Don't worry! Pop your cross in the bin (Hey-Ho! Hey-Ho!) No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in Don't worry! You know you can't win! (Hey-Ho! Hey-Ho!) No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in No matter who you vote for..............FADE
