lyrics

We've been had
We've been duped somehow
Been deceived and cheated
Outwitted and gullible

We've been screwed
We've been stitched up good
We've been led
A merry dance,
The garden path
And by the nose (wu-ho)

So we walked for miled and miles with millions more in London
This is awesome - it's amazing - this is so exhilarating
It's the new style,
Sadly futile.

(It) doesn't take a lot for things to seem improved and brighter
Like when even our Northampton can seem gorgeous in the sunshine-
Well it can - sometimes.

We've been wronged
We've been fooled and conned
Been naïve
Been easy prey
Born yesterday
Kept in the dark

We've been strudled
Gone and been bamboozled
Been sucked in
Confounded
Surrounded
+ Gullible (wu_ho)

Says something when folks agree from every known religion:
"this is crazy, this is madness, this will only bring disaster"
And it has - well fancy that.

When your average men and women say with quiet despondence
"I can see just what you're up to but I don't know how to stop you"
-We've been had - for now.

(we've been strudled…)

Hook, line sinkered
Boggled, tricked, hoodwinkered
Been deluded,
Swindled, skinned,
Been taken in
And Another thing:

We're been humbugged
And weirdly out-numbered
Double crossed
Been laughed at
Been shafted
But dry your tears -
It's just another four years.
