lyrics

Swinging to the right

Sunset of life, I’m swinging to the right
I’m waiting for the endless night
To come and smother me.

And all you kids in bands, look at your hands
Never done a day’s work in your life.
Time to lay a nest egg, time to get invested
In your little futures.

Subset of life, I’m swinging to the right
I know that time is no longer on my side.

Never talk to strangers, Walker Texas Ranger
Wore a silver star pinned to his chest.
He was an authority and the majority
Knew he would do his best.

Cos deep in the heart of it it’s meaningless
It’s all for nothing.
And we missed the starting gun
We are the running man and woman.

Upset at life, I’m swinging to the right
I’m making up my own mind
In my own good time.

Personnel’s for arseholes, maybe you should look at yourself
In another light.
Dirty Harry Callahan was an obnoxious man
And he was swinging to the right.

Cos deep in the heart of it it’s meaningless
It counts for nothing.
And we missed the starting gun
We are the running man and woman.

And all you little gasbags, with your fucking hashtags;
Lost minions, second-hand opinions.
Leering at your cameras,
Waiting for the hammers of the Gods.
