North Sea Bubble (Demo) Lyrics

I went out drinking with Thomas Paine
He said that all revolutions are not the same
They are as different as the cultures
That give them birth
For no one idea
Can solve every problem on earthSo don't expect it all to happen
In some prophesied political fashion
For people are different
And so are nations
You can borrow ideas
But you can't borrow situationsIn Leningrad the people say
Perestroika can be explained this way
The people who told us
That two and two is ten
Are now trying to tell us
That two and two is fiveWe're living in a north sea bubble
We're trying to spend our way out of troubleYou keep buying these things but you don't need them
But as long as you're comfortable it feels like freedomMy American friends don't know what to do

But they'll wait a long time for a Beverley hills coupWar! what is it good for
It's good for business
