century0fakers by belle and sebastian

There are people going hungry every day

Theyve got nothing on their plates

And youre filling your fat face with every different kind of cake

And if you ever go lardy, or go lame

I will drop you straight away

Thats the price you have to pay

For every stupid thing you say

There are people going lonely, and theyll stay

Lonely fay into the year

Because youre making blinkers fashionable

And fashionably youll say

All is equal in love and war and

Im sorry, but Ive got some things to do

And you pretend to read a book youll never finish till the day

That the author dedicates it

To a century of fakers

They took your mould and they burned it on the fire in history today

Yeah, the author dedicates it

To a century of fakers

He was an anarchist, he tried his best but it wasnt good enough

Did I say I would see you soon?

Well Im sorry, but I just came off my bike

And my face is scarred

And chance has barred me seeing you tonight

I was over the other side of the city

And if the truth be known Id say

That you look great from there before you shaved your golden hair today

Everybodys trying to make us

Another century of fakers

They took you mould and burned it on the fire of history today

Everybodys trying to make us

Another cool decade of fakers

Another century of fakers
