"Doing The Best For You"

D. Davies

You can blame it on the government
The unions they use you all your life
You can take any system
And make believe it will be alright.

They've taken the spirit out of your life
And give you a machine
No wonder you feel so hard done by.

They're doing the best for you
Well, that's what they say, I know what you're going through
You travel alone, the journey is long
With only a name, in search of a song.

You can blame it on the Catholics
The Jews, the Blacks and the Whites
You can take any doctrine
And surely waste another life.

Any way that you want it to be
By popular demand
Any way but the way that it should be.

They're doing the best for you
Well, that's what they say, I know what you're going through
You travel alone, the journey is long
With only a name, in search of a home.

The world is ruled by science and money
That's all that exists
How much longer must we live and we die for this ?

Doing the best for you
Doing the best for you
Doing the best for you.

You travel alone, the journey is long
From where do you come ? To where do you go ?
