Lyrics

UNDERSIDE

As you sit in first class luxury, given everything you need,
You turn your TV on and watch the news,
And as the victims of humanity go forward hand in hand,
Just who are we to validate your views,
Making your excuse, for living on the Underside

And you change your entertainment with a simple sleight of hand,
Cos you'd rather walk away than see thier fear,
And as they fall back to obscurity where no one gives a damn,
Just who are we to never shed a tear....never shed a tear,
for living on the Underside.

CHORUS
Oh.... and I question my religion, living on the Underside,
And I ask to be forgiven, for living on the otherside,
It's hard to be so Undesired, Living on the underside.

As you look out of the window and you see the pale blue sky,
Do you ever wonder what lies down below,
As they crawl across the desert, where it's harder to survive,
Just who are we to say we did'nt know,
Raise your glasses slow, for living on the underside...

CHORUS

And you might think humanity, would find itself so ill at ease,
To see the body so diseased.... I could never change it,
There's none so blind as those who see.

And with life so good for those so blessed,
Why should we care if some distress,
Can reach us on the TV screens,
You know...you can almost touch it,
But it does'nt do the same to you and me!

And for all the grace and favour, that's built on wealth and greed,
As the prophets they go spiralling away,
And if a world that's built on beauty, could turn the other cheek,
Just who are we to say there is no way... there could be a day,
For dealing with the Underside

CHORUS
