[Intro] [Verse 1] Dreams Schemes and everythings Fill the dusty corners of your mind As cars boats and aeroplanes Just remind you of a better time [Verse 2] As love’s hopes and everyone’s Anyone worth a minute of your time When unhampered by the agents Of the governors of the faceless so opaque As bare tree’s and winter winds Just confine you to - a bitter place A time you can’t face A peace of your mind [Solo] | | | | | | | | | | [Verse 3] We should be playing in the sunshine Happy to be part of everything Not handled greedy handlers Brought down and destroyed By their own ways Liars! Liars! - smoking on pipes. Dimwit fires [Verse 4] Who Just throw it in their way And how’s your father today Was he caught in the rain? Waiting on a Bed Putting up with the pain Your three wishes expire Now your back in the fire Lock the genie in the shed Put a pistol to his head [Solo] | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [Verse 5] Not handcuffed to some wanker Who doesn’t know me (and doesn’t see (that) our lives are made- (on) from all the efforts Of the masses And all the people who deserve a better - fate [Verse 6] Than a time you can’t trace No peace in your mind A time you can’t place Now your back in the race- Your three wishes expired Now your back in the fire (your three wishes expired - Now your back in the fire) [Verse 7] See you just can’t play Now without a say Always got to be the man Always got to have the plan- It doesn’t run that way Into the ether you’ll say (your three wishes expired - Now your back in the fire) Your three wishes expired - Now your back in the fire

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un sentiment de nostalgie et de désillusion face aux rêves et aux attentes non réalisées. Elle décrit comment les souvenirs d'une époque plus joyeuse s'estompent, remplacés par une réalité amère où l'innocence est perdue. L’artiste réfléchit à la difficulté de trouver la paix intérieure et comment les aspirations sont souvent compromises par des influences extérieures et des personnes malintentionnées. Le ton est également critique envers ceux qui, par leur avidité et leur incompétence, entravent le bonheur des autres, renforçant ainsi le besoin de se libérer des contraintes imposées par la société. En fin de compte, même si l'on aspire à quelque chose de mieux, la vie semble nous ramener à une lutte incessante.
