Full Steam Backwards

(专辑： No Going Back - 2014)

So you studied hard and you got a good job
Cause you don't want to be just another slob
And you put some money away for a rainy day
And the job goes well
And you like the work
And you think promotion is a cert
And you never see it ending any day
And you get a nice car
And you get a nice wife
And you think to yourself: "Man it's a wonderful life!"
But you don't see the trouble headed right your way
On the financial page

Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday
Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday

You get the house and things are going fine
You look around and think: "Is this all mine?"
You've come so far, it's getting better every day
But then the problems start to raise their heads
Those investors weren't all that they said
You lay awake tormented by the certainty
That things aren't how they seem

Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday
Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday

Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday
Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday

So you knuckle down
Until you lost the job
You ended up just another sorry sod
And all your money well it simply drained away
It's the end of your glittering career
Now it's over you're out on your fucking ear
And all the people who did this have all gone away
With a big payday

Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday
Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday

Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday
Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday

Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday
Put your money in a bank son, they all said
You couldn't see the bastards making hay
You're sailing full steam backwards everyday
