In Recognition

歌詞

In Recognition of your 100 million album sales In Recognition of your popularity You take your gaudy prize from people you said you despised You wear your self-respect upon your bended knees. In spite of all your claims It looks like you're just the same As every other clown, who likes put the crown Before or after their name. In Recognition of your service to the working class In Recognition of your party loyalty You get an ermine robe and you declare when you are probed You only took it so the missus would be pleased In spite of all your claims It looks like you're just the same As every other clown, who likes put the crown Before or after their names. Ohhhhhh Vanity It gets them one by one Patronage and Monarchy And all they entail, rarely fail In Recognition of your bravery up on the stage In Recognition of your bank ability You get to wait in lines with soldiers crippled by land mines And you think it's the yanks that don't get irony In spite of all your claims It looks like you're just the same As every other clown, who likes put the crown Before or after their names. In spite of all your claims It looks like you're just the same As every other clown, who likes put the crown Before or after their names. Their name Their name Their name
