Les paroles de la chanson
« Lifeboat »
Nazareth

It´s true
That there was support for you
When you said that you would do
All the things you are supposed to do

So why
Kiss your promises goodbye
Now you´re sitting there on high

Tell me who
Said it was alright for you
To stick your nose into
Anything you want to

Then fake
It´s a genuine mistake
When we catch you on the make
Big government
Look at these clowns
Screwing around
Big Government
Dragging us down
I don´t wanna drown

Somebody get me a lifeboat
Because you´re not getting my vote
Somebody get me a life coach
Cos you´re not goin` in my file
Someone get me a lifeboat
No, you´re not getting my vote

J-J-J-Jobs for the boys
Transparency
Apologies
Austerity
But you don´t fool me, no

Big Government
Making up the rules
Treat us like fools
Big government
Making us pay
I don´t wanna to stay

Somebody get me a lifeboat
Because you´re not getting my vote
Somebody get me a life coach
Cos you´re starting to encroach
Got to get me a lifestyle
Cos you´re not goin` in my file
Someone get me a lifeboat
No, you´re not getting my vote
Somebody get me a life
