Long Time Waiting... Video (MV)

Well I wrote this song whilst I was drunk
It's probably about the government
But who can blame me?

You're probably thinking who am I to preach?
Lord knows that I can't teach
But I'm making more sense than you

You see, from my point of view
We're the ones who are being used
You're the fools

We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting

If you try and bite us in the ass
Then we'll bite back twice as fast
What you think about that?

With your personalized number plates
When you're the ones making all the mistakes
Don't see us walking around like we have millions to spend

Would you be as quick to
Jump into my grave
You probably would

They're doing what they thought
Was right for their country
Not themselves?

We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting

You just waste your words
Like you waste your bullets
But your words are far more dangerous

And now it's such a PC age
That we're afraid to say what we wanna say
But why should we be?

Why don't you just tell it like it is?
And stop pitying people who pity themselves
There are millions of others worse off than you, you know?

We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting

Well admit if you ain't got a clue
'cause we're not the fools here
'cause that's you

As long as you're around
We don't stand a chance; we're straying from the tracks
We better get back that's what I say

You're the vultures settling in the trees
Whilst people wait for their taxis
Woo hoo hoo hoo

Some people don't see a point in working
But their pockets, they're a-hurtin'
Now that ain't fair one bit

We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting

Now blood doesn't wash off that easily
No matter who you are
Or who your God is

You stick to your religion
Think I'll stick to reason

Now everyone's on pills
But no one's feeling ill
What's with that?

We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting

Now the young are looking after the young
And the dumb are looking after the dumb

You dress up all the toys in barbed wire
For the kids to play with
And that's what you call love

Now there's no use in waiting, contemplating
Or debating about all the things we're hating
No sir

Does it really matter what we do
Is it going to change your point of view?
Probably not, but we'll keep trying

We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting
We've been a long, time waiting
For reason
