Wake up

When will you ever recognise?
You see, you push it in the corners
Keep it in the background
Work it out

Rather stick it in the background
Dead weight to carry around
Nothing to believe in
Keep it in the background
Raise a doubt

They try to pull the wool over our eyes And tell us everything's alright

Why don't you keep it in the background?
You've got nothing to worry about tonight

Why don't you keep it in the corners?
Why don't you see it's beaming in the sunshine ?
I guess you might as well try

Guess you might as well try

Oh no, I say, you got it wrong
Oh no, I say, you got it wrong
Oh no, I say, you got it wrong
I say

There's no more keep it in the background
Lead weight to carry around
Nothing to believe in
I tell you something
You've got the wrong idea
You've got the wrong idea
