Took It Away lyrics
by A



Five girls next door, I'm up to my ears

I need a reaction, a new revolution

All over the country, 'cos they took it away



They took it away, it can't be impossible

They're playing the records that they play in hospital

Radio playlist for the terminally ill

You can't tell they're miming 'till you're over the hill



And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...)

And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...)



If you put it like that, you'll be dead some day

Set the record straight - they took it all away



They took it away, left us with nothing

Second-hand hits and million misses

Nobody means it, they're making up stories

You gotta blame someone, you can't blame the Tories



I blame myself, I want an easy life

Does it really matter, ain't worth no suicide

The bigger they come, the harder they fall

I'm kicking myself for wasting it all



And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...)

And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...)



If you put it like that, you'll be dead some day

Set the record straight - they took it all away



They took it away, left us with nothing



You suffer the pain of your fingers burning



And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...)

And it goes on (and on, and on, and on...)



If you put it like that, you'll be dead some day

Set the record straight - they took it all away
