Asking The Questions
(Parsons, Wood, Sawyer, Dale)

We're told to have opinions
Beliefs and standards
Told things to stay away from
Badfooddopepornograffi
SpiritsEcigarrettes
The things that rarely stay
On the shelf for too long

We're told our own opinions
By our Fathers
Our school friends
By machines in our front rooms
We care - only if we're told its right
We're hung up on other peoples lives
Can you really say what you feel inside?
(Tell me what you feel inside…)

Yeah, we're so unhappy
But we sit back and stare
We're not asking the questions
With our apathetic lives
Do we even care
That we're not asking the questions
We sit back and stare

I know a man so angry
He could run the country
Solve our problems
Sitting back in his armchair
He says he's seen this all before
We always make the same mistakes
Visionary Genius starring back
At the world from the TV

And we're so unhappy
But we sit back and stare
We're not asking the questions
With our apathetic lives
Do we even care that
we're not asking the questions
We sit back and stare

And it's always the same thing
Sit back - relax
It's always the same thing
If you feel like you're gonna crack
It's always the same thing
Don't try to change a thing
Why try you know
It's always the same thing

So tell me what you want
Or just sit back and stare…
