[Verse 1]
We took it on the chin
The numbers were so grim
Bossed around by pricks
Stiffen upper lips, yeah
Pacing in the yard
You're trying to take the Mick
You must think I’m really thick
Looking at the graphs with a magnifying glass
Cancel all the tours, football's fake applause, yeah
No more travel brochures
Virtual premieres
I've got nothing left to wear
[Chorus 1]
Looking out from these prison walls
You got to rob Peter if you’re paying Paul
But it's easy, easy
Everything's gonna get really freaky
Alright on the night
Soon it'll bе a memory you're trying to remеmber to forget
[Verse 2]
That's a pretty mask
But never take a chance
TikTok stupid dance
Took a samba class (Yeah)
I landed on my ass
Trying to write a tune
You better hook me up to Zoom
See my Poncey books
Teach myself to cook
Way too much TV, it's lobotomizing me
Yeah, think I've put on weight
I’ll have another drink, then I’ll clean the kitchen sink
[Chorus 2]
We escaped from the prison walls
Open the windows and open the doors
But its easy, easy
Everything's gonna get really freaky
Alright on the night
It’s gonna be a garden of earthly delights
Yeah, it's easy, sleazy
Everything's smooth and greasy
Yeah, easy, believe me
It'll only be a memory you’re trying to remember to forget
[Verse 3]
Shooting the vaccine
Bill Gates is in my bloodstream
It's mind control
The earth is flat and cold
It's never warming up
The arctic's turned to slush
The second coming's late
And there's aliens in the deep state
[Chorus 3]
Now we're out of these prison walls
You gotta pay Peter if you're robbing Paul
But it's easy, easy
Everything's gonna be really freaky
Alright on the night
We're all headed back to paradise
Yeah, easy, believe me
It'll be a memory you're trying to remember to forget
Yeah
[Outro]
Easy, cheesy, everybody sing "Please Please Me"
Yeah
It'll be a memory you're trying to remember to forget
