Midge Ure - Answers To Nothing Lyrics
High upon a hillside,A preacher tells a story to a crowdHe tells the same old story,A thousand times he's read that story loudHe wants to give the answers but his words are onlyAnswers to nothingLying in my bedroom,A man comes on my TV with a grinHe tells me to believe him,He said that I should put my faith in himHe says he has the answers,But his words are onlyAnswers to nothingOh, oh, oh, believed for the last timeOh, oh, oh, deceived for the last timeHear the chosen leaders sayWe can't stay sitting on the fenceBelieve the stuff they feed us,They're buying guns and bombs for our defenceThey think this is the answer,But their thoughts are onlyAnswers to nothingWhere is all the friendship,How can all the comradeship be doneWhat of all the teachings,What of things we learned when we were youngIt doesn't bear the asking, 'cos the answers given wereAnswers to nothingOh, oh, oh, lied for the last timeOh, oh, oh, died for the last timeOh, oh, oh, cried for the last time, this timeOh, oh, oh, believed for the last timeOh, oh, oh, deceived for the last timeOh, oh, oh, believed for the last time, this timeHigh upon a hillside,A preacher tells a story to a crowdHe tells the same old story,A thousand times he's read that story loudHe wants to give the answers but his words are onlyAnswers to nothingLying in my bedroom,A man comes on my TV with a grinHe tells me to believe him,He said that I should put my faith in himHe says he has the answers,But his words are onlyAnswers to nothingOh, oh, oh, lied for the last timeOh, oh, oh, cried for the last timeOh, oh, oh, died for the last timeOh, oh, oh, deceived for the last timeOh, oh, oh, believed for the last time, this time
