I've seen it all, every gallery and concert hall
Those long dead faces and melodies I've heard before
And when we reach the end, what's the point behind it all?
Light entertainment so we forget the place we're in
I've been paying close attention
I've been on the edge of my seat
Waiting for an answer to the question that is on my mind
I can't enjoy this entertainment
I can't enjoy myself because
I'm concentrating too hard on the question
It was going on
We do our finest work
Our surrounding decay
And now I find myself imagining the end
Bricks crumbling
The roof is finally caving in
I knew this day would come but thought I'd be out of here
After all, to start again, you're calling out the shots
And all because, the things we are, we're waiting out the war
I've been paying close attention
I've been on the edge of my seat
Waiting for, yeah I've been waiting for
I can't enjoy this entertainment
I can't enjoy myself because
I'm concentrating, not questioning
After all, to start again, you're calling out the shots
And all because, the things we are, we're waiting out the war
I've seen it all, every gallery and concert hall
Those long dead faces and melodies I've heard before
And when we reach the end, what's the point behind it all?
Light entertainment so we forget we're here
