Belle & Sebastian - A Century Of Fakers Lyrics
There are people going hungry every dayTheyve got nothing on their platesAnd youre filling your fat face with every different kind of cakeAnd if you ever go lardy, or go lameI will drop you straight awayThats the price you have to payFor every stupid thing you sayThere are people going lonely, and theyll stayLonely fay into the yearBecause youre making blinkers fashionableAnd fashionably youll sayAll is equal in love and war andIm sorry, but Ive got some things to doAnd you pretend to read a book youll never finish till the dayThat the author dedicates itTo a century of fakersThey took your mould and they burned it on the fire in history todayYeah, the author dedicates itTo a century of fakersHe was an anarchist, he tried his best but it wasnt good enoughDid I say I would see you soon?Well Im sorry, but I just came off my bikeAnd my face is scarredAnd chance has barred me seeing you tonightI was over the other side of the cityAnd if the truth be known Id sayThat you look great from there before you shaved your golden hair todayEverybodys trying to make usAnother century of fakersThey took you mould and burned it on the fire of history todayEverybodys trying to make usAnother cool decade of fakersAnother century of fakers
