Accident Waiting To Happen Lyrics by Billy Bragg

Accident Waiting To Happen Lyrics

    I've always been impressed with a girl
    Who could sing for her supper and get breakfast as well
    That's the way i am, heaven help me
    He said, "we don't like peace camapigners 'round here"
    As he nailed another one to the wall
    And that's what gets me in trouble, heaven help me

    Goodbye and good luck to all the rubbish that you've spoken
    Goodbye and good luck to all the promises
    You've broken
    Your life has lost its dignity, its beauty and its passion
    You're an accident waiting to happen

    There you are standing at the bar
    And you're giving me grief about the ddr
    And that chip on your choulder gets bigger as you
    Get older
    One of these night you're gonna get caught,
    It'll give you a pregnant pause for thought
    You're a dedicated swallower of fascism

    Time up and time out
    For all the liberties you've taken
    Time up and time out for all the friends that
    You've foresaken
    If you choose to waste away like death is back in fashion
    You're an accident waiting to happen

    And my sins are so unoriginal
    I have all the self-loathing of a wolf in sheep's clothing
    In this carnival of carnivores,
    Heaven help me
