lyrics

Look at the Emporer’s new clothes (you know I never did)
Santa Claus is real.

There’s your brother out in the street,
He is wearing explosives,
On his way to his private paradise,
Not so private it seems,
With the women and children dead.

Do you want to sit idly by?
Not say anything at all?
Or perhaps you think you must believe?
‘Cause it’s written in a book, written in a book,
A man said so you must believe it.

There’s your sister, it’s her wedding day,
She is only ten years old,
Never wanted to, but to run away,
She could end up in binbags.

I never said it did I?
It’s interpretation,
Let’s take a little look,
What’s written in the book,
Which words should we ignore?
