TV Smith Lyrics
"Last True Thing"

Unless you force yourself to hang on every word you
could end up looking like some kind of fool,
getting distracted while they write their own rules,
what was the last true thing you heard?
I heard I'm going to be the next man on the moon,
prosperity is coming soon,
scientists have bred a three-winged bird,
what was the last true thing you heard?
Someone said that it's a caring,
sharing world, the lamb can lay down with the beasts
and as the sun sinks slowly in the east,
what was the last true thing you heard?
Despite the glamour of the politics,
a child of three could do those magic tricks,
there's a rumour that the Big Bang never occurred,
what was the last true thing you heard?
Sometimes openly, sometimes secretively they sow your
good ground with their poisonous seeds.
The line between belief and disbelief is blurred,
we've been conditioned to accept the absurd.
Thank the lord we're overpaid and underworked,
what was the last true thing you heard?
