Boot Stamping on a Human Face Forever

?Drop dead, it doesn't matter,? she said 
?It only hurts when I laugh,? she said 
?Sometimes it's never a crime 
?To spend the day in bed? 
She made certain that the curtains were red 
To dream better by the light they would shed 
She leaned back, tilted her head 
And this is what she said? 

?You can't win; think it over again 
?I can't win; look at the trouble I'm in 
?We can't win and we're stuck here together 
?Yeah, I hope it will last forever.? 

?Don't ever dare to hope,? he said 
?So I'm never let down too bad 
?I know there's nowhere to go 
?So I'll just stay here, instead? 
He knew better than to pull at a thread 
They unravel like the thoughts in his head 
He looked out; it filled him with dread 
And this is what he said? 

[Chorus]

With good looks and books on their side 
And hearts bursting with national pride 
They sang songs and went along for the ride 
And the other side complied 
They said, ?Hey, man, where do you reside? 
?And could it be mother's superior lied? 
?And is it possible too many have died?? 
It's only natural to reply 

[Chorus]
