A Century Of Fakers Lyrics

There are people going hungry every day

 They've got nothing on their plates

 And you're filling your fat face with every different kind of cake

 And if you ever go lardy, or go lame

 I will drop you straight away

 That's the price you have to pay

 For every stupid thing you say

 

 There are people going lonely, and they'll stay

 Lonely fay into the year

 Because you're making blinkers fashionable

 And fashionably you'll say

 'All is equal in love and war' and

 'I'm sorry, but I've got some things to do'

 And you pretend to read a book you'll never finish till the day

 

 That the author dedicates it

 To A Century Of Fakers

 They took your mould and they burned it on the fire in history today

 Yeah, the author dedicates it

 To A Century Of Fakers

 He was an anarchist, he tried his best but it wasn't good enough

 

 Did I say I would see you soon?

 Well I'm sorry, but i just came off my bike

 And my face is scarred

 And chance has barred me seeing you tonight

 I was over the other side of the city

 And if the truth be known I'd say

 That you look great from there before you shaved your golden hair today

 

 Everybody's trying to make us

 Another century of fakers

 They took you mould and burned it on the fire of history today

 Everybody's trying to make us

 Another cool decade of fakers

 Another century of fakers
