Your overdressed lies
stand out against the naked truth
It's no surprise
I saw it before I'd even looked
Your friends in the high places
cover up your disgraces
keep all the straight faces
strictly need to know basis
And you can never lose
So start from a clean slate
Slim down to lean weight
Call on supreme state
To save us from our fate
Cos we, we are just pawns
In this big game, this big game going on
And soon we'll be gone
Will our legacy carry on?
Maybe one day, he'll come along
And the right man will drop the bomb
And I wonder, would it be so wrong?
To forego my freedom
To those sent to lead us
Stop all the dreaming
Be part of the sequence
Cos we can only lose
So start from a clean slate
Slim down to lean weight
Call on supreme state
To save us from our fate
Cos we, we are just pawns
In this big game, this big game going on
And soon we'll be gone
Will our legacy carry on?
Carry on
Carry on
Carry on
