The Likes Of You And I

(album: Levellers - 1993)

Do you ever stop to think from time to time
'Bout the way the world's been left behind
In another place, in another time
We could maybe change the way we think
Take the blinkers from our eyes

Do you think that she was maybe not alone
Do you think there's someone out there
Do you think that they might know
And if they don't do you think they should be told
'Cause she's living in a nightmare
Running out of her control

Take the rope
Take the blindfold from your eyes
Take the rope from 'round your neck
And take the blindfold from your eyes
And you'll never be surprised
When they tell you that they love you
While they're eating you alive

Do you think you have the strength to carry on
Or has the black cat got your tongue
Don't worry now the world's gonna be all right
'Cause the land has been here longer
Than the likes of you and I
