Neil Innes - Lie Down And Be Counted Lyrics
There's no song for the singer No words for the tuneThere's a mess in the messageAnd a man on the moonThere's no plan in the planetIt's all gone berserkThere's a milk bottle shortageAnd the traffic lights don't workLie down and be countedDon't take any moreLie down and be countedWhat are we standing for?But there's hope for the couples who stroll in the parkThere's nuclear power to light up the darkThere's national health and ice in the fridgeAnd the occasional cow on a motorway bridgeThere's extended credit on easier termsAnd something to kill all known household germsThere's sofas and armchairs and washing machinesStars on Sunday, fishfingers and beansLie down and be countedDon't take any moreLie down and be countedWhat are we standing for?There's no song for the singer, no words for the tuneThere's a mess in the message and a man on the moonThere's no plan in the planet, it's all gone berserkThere's an everything shortage and the traffic lights still don't workLie down and be countedDon't take any moreLie down and be countedWhat are we standing for?Lie down and be countedDon't take any moreLie down and be countedWhat are we standing for?
