Light Entertainment

(album: This Is A Fix - 2008)

I've seen it all
Every gallery and concert hall
Those long-dead faces
And melodies I've heard before
And when we reach the end
What's the point behind it all?
Light entertainment so we forget the place we're in

I've been paying close attention
I've been on the edge of my seat
Waiting for an answer to
The question that's been on my mind
I can't enjoy this entertainment
I can't enjoy myself because
I'm concentrating too hard on
Not questioning what's going on

We do our finest work
In surroundings decay
And now I find myself imagining the end
Bricks crumbling
The roof is finally caving in
I knew this day would come
But I thought I'd be out of here

After all
We'll start again
You're calling out
The shot
And all because
The things we are
We're waiting out
The war

I've been paying close attention
I've been on the edge of my seat
Waiting for
Yeah I've been waiting for
I can't enjoy this entertainment
I can't enjoy myself because
I'm concentrating
We're not questioning
Oh

After all
We'll start again
You're calling out
The shot
And all because
The things we are
We're waiting out
The war

I've seen it all (after all)
Every gallery and concert hall (we'll start again)
Those long-dead faces (you're calling out)
And melodies I've heard before (the shot)
And when we reach the end (and all because)
What's the point behind it all? (the things we are)
Light entertainment so we forget we're here (we're waiting out, the war)
