Pet Shop Boys - The Dictator Decides lyrics

Your rating:

Will someone please say the unsayable?

Will someone please tell me I'm wrong?

I live every day like a sad beast of prey

For I have to appear to be strong

And that's wrong

I'm too weak to be strong

Today I met with the generals

And the head of my secret police

Discussing conspiracies and prison facilities

For opponents I can never release

And there'll be no peace

Until they're released

Of course I'm in league with the army

It's not like I've got any choice

They officially adore me and my father before me

But gunpoint has a firm voice

The joke is I'm not even a demagogue

Have you heard me giving a speech?

My facts are invented

I sound quite demented

So deluded it beggars belief

It would be such a relief

not to give another speech

Can someone please say the impossible?

Crowds should be out on the street

I've lost any will to threaten or kill

I'll be easy for you to defeat

And any resistance I meet

I'll beat a retreat

I'd rather that you didn't shoot me

But I'd quite understand if you did

Watch out for the army

The generals will go barmy

At the thought of a takeover bid

Oh please will somebody put me

Out of my misery?

This sad old dictator must sooner or later

Flee so that you can be free

If you get rid of me

We can all be free
