Fad Gadget - "Under The Flag I" lyrics
*** Complimentary Under The Flag I Ringtone ***
Well the story begins on the Isle of Dogs
In a time of world recession
There's a queue a mile long for every job
Young hopes deep in depression
So the lap-dog finds a mate, and makes his first mistake
Well our anti-hero's coy, such a weak-willed boy
He follows his nose, not his head
She winds up in a hospital bed
Now the baby's doing fine, but daddy hasn't got the time
Then return and hit the wife, she'll attack him with a knife
He'll drink himself oblivious
In a time of world recession
There's a queue a mile long for every job
Young hopes deep in depression
So the lap-dog finds a mate, and makes his first mistake
Well our anti-hero's coy, such a weak-willed boy
He follows his nose, not his head
She winds up in a hospital bed
Now the baby's doing fine, but daddy hasn't got the time
Then return and hit the wife, she'll attack him with a knife
He'll drink himself oblivious
Oh the script is so damned obvious
Under the flag
Survival leads men to do foolish things
He thought he'd try working for the government
A civil service tool
And yes he was a fool
'Cos when you're working for the state you can sell your life to fate
Now the boy is doing fine, but he'll have to toe the line
You're not working anymore for love
His orders are from high above
Under the flag
Under the flag
Survival leads men to do foolish things
He thought he'd try working for the government
A civil service tool
And yes he was a fool
'Cos when you're working for the state you can sell your life to fate
Now the boy is doing fine, but he'll have to toe the line
You're not working anymore for love
His orders are from high above
Under the flag
