about

HOW DO YOU SLEEP AT NIGHT?: “When Tony Blair was elected as the Prime Minister in 1997, I didn't think that he'd be the Messiah, but I didn't realise that he'd be such a naughty boy (for naughty boy , read Devil incarnate) and that he'd spurn the hopes of a beleaguered nation, on, its knees after years of Tory misrule. The final betrayal was his unambiguous support for Bush's invasion of Iraq. The title of this song, speaks for itself.” CHEESY

lyrics

How Do You Sleep at Night?

It was a blockbuster movie with a Hollywood production
Special effects, no weapons of mass destruction.
A tapestry of lies spun on a wheel of corruption.
When you sacked Iraq
Sacked Iraq.

You bombed the culture back to the middle ages.
Raped its philosophy, history and sages
Your Spin relegated it from the front pages.
Now you’ve sacked Iraq.
Sacked Iraq.

Roll up, Roll up, for the Blair Bush illusion.
Prestidigitation, practiced by crown princes of collusion.
But we all knew there could be only one logical conclusion,
When the world is ruled by demi-gods of delusion.

You lapped up power like a junkie hooked on smack
The hate seeds you sowed have started to strike back.
Blair, how can you sleep at night?
Blair, how can you sleep at night, since you sacked Iraq.
Sacked Iraq.

Your net worth is twenty million in the black.
But you lost your real worth the day you sacked Iraq
Blair, how do you sleep at night?
Blair, how do you sleep at night, since you sacked Iraq?
Sacked Iraq.

How do you sleep at night, since you sacked Iraq?
Sacked Iraq.
How do you sleep at night, since you sacked Iraq.
Sacked Iraq.
Blair how do you sleep at night since you sacked Iraq
Sacked Iraq
