    Theme
    Now I understand (ha, ha, ha)
Now I understand (ha, ha, ha)
    Theme going on and on and on
    It’s not the same anymore
    No, never, never no 
    Wish
    Wish
    Wish I could die
Now walk alone
    Now walk in drain
    Does not compute
    Not a cliche
    And I wish I could die (ha, ha, ha)
Random
    There is only one reaction
    You must never underestimate
    And I wish I 
    And I wish I could die (ha, ha, ha)
Now understand
Now I understand
    It doesn’t matter no more
    Another leap in the dark
    I will survive
    And I wish I could die
    And I wish I could die
    And I wish I
    I wish I 
    I wish I could die (ha, ha, ha)
It’s only excuses
    Never mistaking
    Rhyme or reason
    No, never no never
    And I wish I could die
    And I wish I 
    And I wish I could die (ha, ha, ha)
    I wish I could die
Understand
    Theme’s going on
    On and on and on
    I wish I could die
No, never no more
    Does not compute
    Walk alone out of the drain
    It’s not cliche
    Wish I 
    Wish
    Wish I could die
    And I wish I could die (ha, ha, ha)
    And I wish I could die
On and on and on and on
    Will survive
    I wish I could die
    I will survive
    I wish I could die
Understanding doesn’t matter no more
    Leap in the dark
    I will survive
    Wish I could die
    Wish I could die
    Wish I could die
    Wish I could die
I just died
Terminal boredom
  
Stained glass windows keep the cold outside
    While the hypocrites hide inside
    With the lies of statues in their minds
    Where the Christian religion made them blind
    Where they hide 
    And prey to the God of a bitch spelled backwards is dog
    Not for one race, one creed, one world
    But for money
    Effective
    Absurd
Do you pray to the Holy Ghost when you suck your host
    Do you read who’s dead in the Irish Post
    Do you give away the cash you can’t afford
    On bended knees and pray to lord
Fat pig priest 
    Sanctimonious smiles
    He takes the money
    You take the lies
    This is religion and Jesus Christ
    This is religion cheaply priced
    This is bibles full of libel
    This is sin in eternal hymn
    This is what they’ve done
    This is your religion
    The apostles were eleven
    Now there’s a sod in Heaven
This is religion
    There’s a liar on the altar
    The sermon never falter 
    This is religion
    Your religion

Think I’m proud to be your enemy
    Take your hands off of me
    You’re worse than the thing that possessed me
    They way they were
    The way they should have been
    Annalisa
Annalisa was 15 years
    Stole her soul
    But I hear no tears
    Ever been alone 
    And heard the voice 
    Not your own
    I’ve seen those fears
    Annalisa
Somehow you used ignorance for sense
    Melodrama in your eyes
    All concern rests with the dead
    Annalisa
Annalisa had no escape
    Starved to death in a waiting room
    Cheap concern and rosary beads
    Did not solve screaming needs
    Annalisa
Annalisa
Annalisa was 15 years
    Stole her soul
    But I hear no tears
    Ever been alone 
    And heard the voice 
    Not your own

Somehow you used ignorance for sense
    Melodrama in your eyes
    All concern rests with the dead
Annalisa
    Annalisa
    Annalisa
Crawl like rabid dog
Annalisa (repeat)
  
Hello, hello, hello (ha, ha, ha)
You never listen to a word that I said
    You only seen me
    For the clothes that I wear
    Or did the interest go so much deeper
    It must have been
    The colour of my hair
    
    The Public Image
    
    What you wanted was never made clear
    Behind the image was ignorance and fear
    You hide behind this public machine
    Still follow same old scheme
    
    Public Image
    
    Two sides to every story
    Somebody had to stop me
    I'm not the same as when I began
    I will not be treated as property
    
    Public Image
Two sides to every story
    Somebody had to stop me
    I'm not the same as when I began
    It’s not a game of monopoly
Public image
Public image
    You got what you wanted
    The public image belongs to me
    It's my entrance
    My own creation
    My grand finale
    My goodbye
Public image 
    Goodbye

    Very dubious guy with that long haired hippy roadie next to him
