Apes Pigs & Spacemen Great Place Lyrics

I know we’re gonna do it this time.
We followed every golden rule.
The people need someone to lead them
And we can show that we’re no fools.
Our endless surveys and relentless badgering
Helped us concluding that they’ll swallow anything.
We kissed their babies and we shook so many hands
And said, ‘It’s great to see you,
It’s great to see you, it’s great to see you
And it’s great to have you on our side.’

Chorus:
This is a great place to be
This is a great place to be for everybody
It’s a great place to be
Yeah, it’s a great place to be
And don’t you forget it.

Stop!
We only tell them what they need to know
Give away too much and they’d take over the show.
Wear clothes in pictures, boys, And please don’t take no drugs
And when you’re called for evidence
Just everybody shrug.
While speculating on the markets and raising tax
Make sure you’ve always got a smile for their brats
And say, ‘It’s great to see you
It’s great to see you, it’s great to see you
And it’s great to know you’re on our side.

Chorus.

We only tell them what they need to know.

Taking their liberties,
Yeah, that might prove a drag
Maybe a little war would pull them round the flag
You know it’s great to see you
It’s great to see you, it’s great to see you
And it’s great to have you on our side.

Chorus.
