lyrics

Well I can’t help being a straight white man in a straight white country
And I can’t stand the injustices done in my name
But I’m just a bloke that plays in a band for the love not the money
Do you really believe that I’m to blame?

Now I’m not saying I’m innocent
But I’m not in cahoots with the devil
If not for lack of controversy, I could be on the teevee trying to pretend I’m a rebel

Fifty quid a show won’t fund an army
Especially not if you prop up the bar like we do
So don’t look at me when the world goes to war for a reason unknown or a cause immature
I’ll be looking on with a brew wondering just like you

Well I can’t help being born in the land of the living
And I can’t fathom the places I see on the news
But I’m just a bloke with small-time dreams like a tour or seven
And I’m just gonna sit and play the blues

Now I'm not saying we're heaven-sent
But I can't truthfully say we're terrible
If not for lack of business sense, we could be on the radio with an album to peddle

Fifty quid a show won’t fund an army
Especially not if you prop up the bar like we do
So don’t look at me when the world goes to war for a reason unknown or a cause immature
I’ll be looking on with a brew wondering just like you

I can’t help being based in a town miles from anywhere
Well probably I could but that’s by the bye
But I’m just a bloke with a stage to stoke and a good way to get there
And that’s what you’re looking to me for, and that’s alright
