Flash And The Pan - Only the Bad Survive

Whoa

Mister church man, can you tell me?
Mister politician too
I'm so tired of disillusion
I don't know, do you?
Everywhere, I see children
No future in their eyes
While we turn a blind eye
They smother in lies

Sometimes, I get so despairing
Get sick of these lies
But only the bad survive (Only the bad)
Only the bad survive (Only the bad)

I hear the sound of distant thunder
But there's sunshine up above
One side's Armageddon
The other smothered in love
It don't come from the middle
It don't come from the left
See those fat creatures purrin'
Indifferent to theft

Sometimes, I get so discouraged
Get sick of this life
But only the bad survive (Only the bad)
Only the bad survive (Only the bad)

Find words, vote winner
Big bride from the big sinner
True hearts, flag wavin'
I'm gettin' sick of your pontificatin'

Only the bad survive (Only the bad survive)
Only the bad survive (Only the bad survive)
Only the bad survive (Only the bad survive)
Only the bad survive (Gettin' ill)
Only the bad survive (Find words for the big sinner)
Only the bad survive (Vote winner)
Only the bad survive (Flag waver)
Only the bad survive (Live singer)
Only the bad survive
