Do you remember where we met at the turn of the century,
Ripping up the dancefloors in all and a plenty,
Wasted with the young,
Just like our education
We were at the school of life, learning valuable lessons,
Be polite to the police or you'll end up arrested,
And I apologised to be wasted made in England
I don't know what they thought of me,
Why don't you open up and see
And now that everybody wants,
Everybody wants,
Everybody wants,
Their piece of fame and,
When it never comes,
When it never comes,
Everybody wants,
Someone to blame
We were looking for the dream, we'd been promised as children,
A purpose and a pleasure and a little fulfillment,
But the life that's advertised,
Is just a dream to cling to
When you think the jackpot has finally hit you,
It's all null and void, "Sorry, we can't permit you",
You're just not qualified,
You tried and you were tested
They say "Suss out what you can do,
'Cause this dream was not designed for you"
And now that everybody wants,
Everybody wants,
Everybody wants,
Their piece of fame and,
When it never comes,
When it never comes,
Everybody wants,
Someone to blame
Now it's snowing in the toilets, oh my will I carry on,
Take a bow, it's not alright,
You bag it up, rip it out, shape it up and it's alright,
The dogs won't bark tonight
The dogs won't bark tonight,
The dogs won't bark tonight
The dogs won't bark tonight,
The dogs won't bark, no, the dogs won't bark
'
Cause everybody wants,
Everybody wants,
Everybody wants,
Their piece of fame and,
When it never comes,
When it never comes,
Everybody wants,
Someone to blame
Now it's snowing in the toilets, oh my will I carry on,
Take a bow, it's not alright,
You bag it up, rip it out, shape it up and it's alright,
The dogs won't bark tonight
