Aftershave and smoke
And the same unfunny jokes
They say they'll take you "Anywhere
But there"
Believe every half-whispered
Half-remembered lie
Where truth is a luxury
They can't afford to buy
Scapegoat
Looking for a scapegoat
There's always someone else for you to blame
Backed into a corner
He barricades his life
Fastens up the shutters every night
This island is big enough
For every castaway
But most of us are looking round
For someone else to blame
