Lyrics
Welcome everyone to tonight’s debate I’ve got a feeling that something is going to break We’ve got some bleeding hearts out here on my left And then a racist tells you he’s talking common sense It’s not common sense I’m the chair, respect my suit and tie I’m so impartial I don’t come here to take sides I’m adding nothing, I’m taking nothing away While the masters of division are multiplying again We’re still playing their games... they go Here are some words that the world’s been waiting Here are some words that the world’s been waiting Here are some words that the world’s been waiting for.. It’s alright it really is No it’s not But we might as well act like it ‘Cause you know being a realist Well it ain’t really gonna help with anything It’s alright it really is Kim jong un’s got a nuclear warhead It’s ok he’s just posturing He’s measuring his nob but we’ve got a bigger one Ladies and gentlemen now you’re all vexed up Let’s take a question from that shifty guy at the back On today’s front page there’s something I oppose There’s no substance in his question the substance is all in his nose And that’s why our panel seem to know exactly what he’s talking about. Now Calm Down, don’t you talk over me I’ll point my pen at you I’m David Dimbleby This is my circus and you, you are my clowns So Speak when your spoken to but right now shut up and sit down It’s all gone wrong it really has Come on mate, you’ve gotta put a smile on it Nah, you know being a pessimist Well it might just help us identify a problem before it occurs It’s all gone wrong it really has Help us Jesus or Buddha or Superman ‘Cause you know being a Cartoonist You can pull out a truth you won’t see in a photograph It’s alright it really is We’ve got to bomb the hell out of something ‘Cause you know being a pacafist Well that won’t make anyone rich Well we’ve not really got to the bottom or frankly agreed about anything but we’re out of time so you know, roll the credits. Next time we’ll be discussing the existential status of the soul, specifically in relation to gingers. Tune in the to find out more when we’ll be coming at you from Canterbury where our audience think they’re better than you. I’m inclined to agree.
