See the beautiful people smile so cold they freeze.

Draped in furs, his and hers, can't see the woods for the trees.

Sugar and spice and all things nice the fatal mistake

M'lady the people have no bread "What's wrong with cake?"



If you have to ask you'll never know

If you have to ask you'll never know

you'll never know  



They said the sun would never set where the flag of freedom flies

Years and years of heavy rain centuries of lies

The Holy Land through to Vietnam Christian soldiers came

Plundering in the name of God "Why should we feel ashamed?"



If you have to ask you'll never know

If you have to ask you'll never know

you'll never  



A razor blade around his neck, coke spoon for the wife

For them it is the real thing adds a touch of life

Without a care drive through Leicester Square across to Piccadilly Circus.

Corpses stare from the penny arcade "Are they flying high like us?"  



If you have to ask you'll never know

If you have to ask you'll never know

you'll never know
