It was a reasonable take
But in the time that it took
To find a beat in the break
The needle combing through the grooves
Of your mind, had already stuck
And so you turned to a friend
And asked them what they had left
They stuck their hand down the back
Of their pants and said
‘I think the conversation might be reaching an end'
I said we can’t have that
Pour another for my brother, sister
Or whichever other you’d prefer we call ya
Coz, there’s no judgement
Only understanding when,
We’re standing round hand in hand
Watching the world burn
I saw the narrative peak
Though it was not evident,
As we agreed that everything was so bleak
That giving your two pence on anything
It wasn’t worth a fucking thing
So we had become friends
Though I did not know your name,
And come the morning, following the night when everything changed,
I was ashamed to recognise that everything stayed the same
I said we can’t have that
Pour another for my brother, sister
Or whichever other you’d prefer we call ya
Coz, there’s no judgement
Only understanding when,
We’re standing round hand in hand
Watching the world burn
Standing round, hand in hand
Watching the world burn
