Oh What a World - Erasure

I want to be in the witness protection programme

I don’t like what we’ve become

We’ve become borderline obsessive compulsives

Stop the world I want to get off with you baby

Stop right now

And it seems to me it’s the way it’s gonna be

No-one out there wants to see the things I see

It’s a crazy world a million voices go unheard

What became of wanting to be free

Oh what a world

We lost power long ago

We reap what we have sown

We have no conscience to speak of

It’s sheer madness

Don’t take the moral high ground

Hide behind your fake words

It’s just an excuse

For your weakness

What a lost opportunity, don’t be upset with me

What about all the secrets here on Earth

We unbottled the genie living out fantasies

Fell for the propaganda badly

Oh what a world

And it seems to me it’s the way it’s gonna be

No-one out there wants to see the things I see

It’s a crazy world a million voices go unheard

What became of wanting to be free

And it seems to me it’s the way it’s gonna be

No-one out there wants to see the things I see

It’s a crazy world a million voices go unheard

What became of wanting to be free

Oh what a world
