Reality Check
I got voted off today and I never felt so free Time I made my getaway I've got places to go, people to see Yes I tried to stay to play if not to win But try as I may the votes kept pouring in But it doesn't mean anything As if it ever meant anything
Reality check in the green room Bag up the rider, hugs in the wings I've got my girl I've got to get to Supercolliders in our sofa springs
Two kisses for my little stars They take away the worry lines I never dreamt that I would get this far In these hard, gladiatorial times
Where am I going? With these thoughts inside my head Where there was stomach for the fight Is there yet only cheese in there instead? But does it mean anything? Could it ever mean anything?
I got voted off today and I never felt so free Time I made my getaway I've got places to go, people to see Yes I tried to stay, but just to play I don't want to win But try as I may the votes kept pouring in Got to go But it doesn't mean anything As if it ever meant anything
God, man and the Earth Fighting for places on the show Countless Emporer's thumbs Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Get repetitive strain texting who's got to go
Three crosses up on high afar With their names on signs It must really matter who they are In these hard, gladiatorial times
Where slaves fight slaves In the pantomime decline and fall Lust turns on love As if there's nowhere near enough to love us all
And the lines are now closed To the public at large You will not count But you will still be charged The results are in And who leaves can be revealed In no particular order, here's the deal: Corruption, greed and robber banks - it's not you Ignorance and intolerance - it's not you Cruelty and torture from above - it's not you Peace, freedom and love - it might be you
We've got talent for teasing and training the hounds Talent for fixing all the battlegrounds Merciless mercenary moral makeovers And waging war on the weakest pushovers Come dine with me Come dancing come killing Come see the world for the blood-stained shilling Snog marry avoid compassion Embarrasing minds are back in fashion
I got voted off today and I never felt so free Time I made my getaway I've got places to go, people to see
