Seen the troubles and the evils of this world

I've seen the stretches between godliness and sin

I've had the promise and confessions of true faith

And the hypocrisy that always lies within

And they left it for you - all of this for you -



I've seen the products and the other world of waste

I've seen the colour of corruption deep within

I've seen them lose themselves in dignity and taste

To see in black and white and through to black again

And they left it for you - all of this for you -



And they left it for you - all of this for you

And they left it for you - everything for you

I've seen the troubles and the evils of this world

I've seen the ones who can succeed but always lose

I've seen what's left of poor technology and work

And watched them dying as they leave their ship of fools

And they left it for you - all of this for you -
