Blur : Mr Whippy

                          

Caramel Lonesome seat

House of cards

In the darkest days
from Fitzrovia to Tiananmen square
I learned to live minute by minute
appreciating the finer qualities of life

because we are a rarity

Now we can't afford our house of cards
and you can't get back
Hammersmith Palais was a brother
to The Astoria
now I just ignore yer

Crossrail
and the baby boomers will be neutered

And I get this funny feeling
with Russian Bears looking down from the ceiling
how we forgot Cold War conformity

Oh it's a House of Cards
we gamble away our livelihoods
Greenbelt land for sale
Tax the air
Download our DNA

let's build a thousand Shards
in our backyard
a monument to obscenity

because we are a rarity

the future has been sold
we are a rarity
as we grow old
reduced to a commodity
living in our House of Cards

we are a rarity



          1000 Shards = £1.4 Trillion (of debt)             'YOU CAN'T DO IT FOR TOFFEE'
