For the Parasites and 50p's worth of fame stab you in the back fuckers out there...you know who you are!

lyrics

Be Careful What You Wish For


There I stumble, there I’ll fall and watch as others put their true colours on,
I see there’s nothing really there at all at all…I imagined would be.

See the Fat Man yeah you know he breaks into a sweat,
Then falls asleep down at his desk,
Well it’s a pity that he don’t mix, no he don’t mix, oh he don’t mix…he’s too busy scheming tricks.

(Chorus)
Well I’ll be careful what I wish for now, careful that it’s real,
Careful of the merits of the one’s with which I deal oh yeah,
Careful of those parasites – I get them feeding at my plate…but they’re really waiting for a chance to…take my thoughts away…take my thoughts away.

There’s a writer on a hill, swallowing his righteous pills,
He’s ‘appreciative’ or so he said, or so he said or so he said…
He’s full of shit just like the rest!

His shallowness well it deflates me, his accusations really grate with me,
Their apologies are little use, they are little use, they are little use…they mix with all their other puce.

(Chorus)
Well I’ll be careful what I wish for now, careful that it’s real,
Careful of the merits of the one’s with which I deal oh yeah,
Careful of those parasites – I get them feeding at my plate…but they’re really waiting for a chance to…take my thoughts away…take my thoughts away.

Well I’ll be, careful what I wish for now and I’ll be careful who I wish it to,
Careful what I want it for and careful who I give it to now,
Careful what I wish for now and I’ll be careful who I wish it to,
Careful what I want it for and careful who… I give it to…well I give it to you, I give it to you this time…oh this time…oh this time…oh this time,

Careful what I wish for now…careful who I wish it to,
Careful what I want it for and I’ll be careful who I give it to this time.
