Anxious
Housemartins

I was walking by the river, I was asking myself questions
But the answers I came up with didn't fit
Some have breakfast in bed some aren't properly fed
The way they talk about it makes me want to spit

And they're raising all their eyebrows at the raising of the pound
Whilst they raise another city to the ground
And we're opening the doors and walking 'round on all fours
Looking for a sense in lost and found

Anxious, Don't they know it is wrong, it makes me anxious
Anxious, Don't they know it is wrong, it makes me anxious

I really thought I'd have my tongue ties if I stood up to shout
But all they did was listen without their ears
And I thought I'd be beheaded if I stuck my neck out
But they just gave me a hanky for my tears

I have confidence in confidence, I hope that hope pulls me through
But I think a little more is needed now
We've got to form a congregation and sink down the nation
Batter all the sinners to the ground

Anxious, Don't they know it is wrong, it makes me anxious
Anxious, Don't they know it is wrong, it makes me anxious

Anxious, Don't they know it is wrong, it makes me anxious
Anxious, Don't they know it is wrong, it makes me anxious

Lyrics by Housemartins

  Bow Down   Build   Caravan Of Love   Drop Down Dead   Everyday's The Same   Five Get Over Excited   Flag Day   Freedom   Get Up Off Our Knees   Happy Hour   He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother   I Bit My Lip   I Can't Put My Finger On It   I Smell Winter   I'll Be Your Shelter   Johannesburg   Lean On Me   Me & The Farmer   Me & The Farmer   Over There   Sheep   Sitting On A Fence   So Much In Love   Step Outside   The Light Is Always Green   The People Who Grinned Themselves To Death   The World's On Fire   There Is Always Something There To Remind Me   Think For A Minute!   We Shall Not Be Moved   We're Not Deep   We're Not Going Back   You Better Be Doubtful
