Phil Ber World Gone Mad (feat. Andrew Walker)
the gauntlets down
get onto your knees and pray
the choir raises its voice
listen, for its judgment day
you practice what you don’t preach
taking sides devoid of belief
twisting words around in pretzels made of air
has your arithmetic gone bust
are the politics not the sum of us
world gone mad
the car's in neutral but the gas is slammed
world gone mad
the chips are down, are you a gambling man?
chinese whispers have laid a plan
the circus has gone bust
can you see the lion?
it turns out he’s been stuffed
the clowns, their grins chagrin us
chagrin us
razzle dazzle, razzle dazzle me
I want to see you wag the dog for me
world gone mad
pop your pain killers and you’ll fit in fast
world gone mad
the chips are down, are you a gambling man?
[instrumental]
time to gate crash your little party
you know the drinks on us
I’ve brought you a present
they’re caustic suds to clean you up
the spotlight shines so bright
show time!
world gone mad
the car's in neutral but the gas is slammed
world gone mad
the chips are down, are you a gambling man?
world gone mad
pop your pain killers and you’ll fit in fast
world gone mad
the chips are down, are you a gambling man?
the chips are down, are you a gambling man?
the cards have all been dealt,
who’s got the ace in their hand?
