So easy to take the moral high ground
When you're way up on your horse having a ride round
Just through day to day life I've found
You need to pipe down when your mind's talking right loud
Cos it's much easier to pass judgement
Than it is to be the person getting judged just look up
Catch the guy there on his loyal steed
Having the time of his life being royalty
Handing out decrees on how something should have been
When it comes to sorting summat out they're nowhere to be seen
Just straddling a saddle in a paddock in a dream
That we need another lecture from the king or maybe queen
Full of self confidence built on self esteem
Or is it just a wall so we don't see behind the scenes?
Mate it's not required we don't need you on the team
So do one with your massive mare and friggin' leave us be
On ya high horse
Get off ya high horse
If you read the Daily Mail and all that other shite
Put stilts on your horse and ride the mountain sides
Cos no horse... is too tall... that we can't smell the man you're
Covering up, when you're sprouting all that rancour
I'm sure that you were encouraged to debate
During your time in Oxbridge, Eton or some other lovely place
But it makes us distrust the heads of state
When they stood up, said some stuff and people made out it was great
Cos it sounded anti-freedom, anti-human, pro-cash
And cash is the only thing that dunt exist and won't last
They make us chase while they maintain a gold stash
Dashing round on horseback telling us, "don't hold back
Let the planet take the battering it's old hat
We need energy by any means: burn the oil, frack
Let the wildlife be damned it'll probably grow back
Now I'm off to dodge tax and stable the old nag"
It's my high horse
Get off ya high horse
On ya high horse
Get off ya high horse
Sometimes... I can't descend from my high horse
Wonder whether I'm even up on it to climb orrfff
Am I offering some thoughtful advice
Or am I the awkward guy who's also all full of shite?
People's eyes rolling as I stroll in, legs wide open, atop a stallion
I know things so take polite notice, turns phones to mute and desist from your chattering
I need a battering, it's embarrassing, it's not flattering, and now I'm panicking
Cos how often have I bin up on horseback
Without realising it was me giving a short chat?
On my opinions, unwelcome as they are
On what you should have done in order to make it far
On what I know it is to be alive and also me
Regardless of your problems, my horse and I agree
We're on the right course
Why's that?
Cos it's my high horse
On my high horse
I need to get off my high horse
