Boot Stamping On A Human Face Forever Songtext / Lyric

Drop dead, it doesn't matter, she said

It only hurts when I laugh, she said

Sometimes it's never a crime

To spend the day in bed

She made certain that the curtains were red

To dream better by the light they would shed

She leaned back, tilted her head

And this is what she said



You can't win; think it over again

I can't win; look at the trouble I'm in

We can't win and we're stuck here together

Yeah, I hope it will last forever.






Don't ever dare to hope, he said

So I'm never let down too bad

I know there's nowhere to go

So I'll just stay here, instead

He knew better than to pull at a thread

They unravel like the thoughts in his head

He looked out; it filled him with dread

And this is what he said



(Chorus)



With good books and looks on their side

And hearts bursting with national pride

They sang songs that went along for the ride

And the other side complied

They said, Hey, man, where do you reside?

And could it be mother's superior lied?

And is it possible too many have died?

It's only natural to reply



(Chorus)
