But It Is

But It Is Lyrics by The Proclaimers

Intro Chorus We Say That's Not Who We Are But It Is Injustice Rising, De-Civilising We Say That's Not Who We Are But It Is Our Collective Conscience Is Proven Nonsense Every Minute Of The Day Verse 1 I've Watched These Years Of Decline Now I'm An Old Man I'd Like To Say Things Would Get Better I Don't Think That I Can Chorus We Say That's Not Who We Are But It Is When Did We Decide To Aid A Genocide? We Say That's Not Who We Are But It Is Causing Hunger, Following Warmongers To The Deepest Pits Of Hell Verse 2 We Talk Of Barbarism Like We Left It In The Past While We Elect Malignant Scoundrels Each One As Bad As The Last Interlude Verse 3 We Lecture Others On Morality While Wi' The Deil We Sup We Say We Face Down Terror Just Hold A Mirror Up Chorus We Say That's Not Who We Are But It Is Injustice Rising, De-Civilising We Say That's Not Who We Are But It Is Our Collective Conscience Is Proven Nonsense Every Minute Of The Day Nonsense Every Minute Of The Day
