The Day You Lied
When you sat in all the cheap seats
With the money that you paid
I recall the optimism
Then the contempt that you displayed
I had nothing to say to you
On the day you lied
When they had to clear the harbour
To drain the sewage that was there
It was gone in next to no time
But at no time did you care
I had nothing to say to you
On the day you lied
(Chorus)
That’s what you get when you crossover
That’s what you mean when you oppose
And end up living side-by-side
When they came to block the pathways
You said you understood the cause
But when it came to give it all back
With the other hand you took more
I had nothing to say to you
On the day you lied
When you sat in all the cheap seats
With the money that you paid
I recall the optimism
Then the contempt that you displayed
I have nothing to say to you
