1
(i. Fuck Everyone and Run)
2
We are the new Kings
3
Sailing our seas of diamonds and gold
4
We are the new Kings
5
Seldom seen, elsewhere and unknown
6
We are the new Kings
7
Buying up London from Monaco
8
We do as we please
9
While you do as you're told
10
Fuck everyone and run
11
Fuck everyone and run
12
Tony, not Anthony ,suitably masked
13
Nassau Bahamas, Geneva, Luxembourg ,no questions asked
14
Our world orbits yours and enjoys the view
15
From this height we don't see the slums and the bums on the street
16
Or the mums on the game
17
Fuck everyone and run
18
Fuck everyone and run
19
We're too big to fall
20
We're too big to fail
21
We're too big to fall
22
We're too big to fail
23
And when we do,
24
It's down to you
25
We're too big to fall
26
We're too big to fail
27
Too big
28
(ii. Russia's Locked Doors)
29
We are the new Kings
30
We had the keys to Old Russia's locked doors
31
We are the new Kings
32
Here on the corporation's top floor
33
If you cross us we'll buy you and you can retire
34
Your children set up for life
35
Think about it,
36
Greed is good..
37
We are the new Kings
38
We sold your council houses, not to you, but the banks
39
Up in the stratosphere - wielding the knife
40
While you said thanks
41
Oceans of money high in the clouds
42
But if you hang around
43
More often than not, it'll trickle down,
44
While the diggers of the diamonds we wear, labour underground for dear life
45
On your knees, peasant, and kiss this ring
46
You're working for the new king
47
We are the new kings
48
I'll tell you a tale
49
We're too big to fall
50
We're too big to fail
51
(iii. A Scary Sky)
52
We saw the crash on the news today ,oh boy
53
It changed our lives
54
But did it really happen?
55
Flyin' high in a scary sky
56
Flyin' high in a scary sky
57
What's going on?
58
What's going on?
59
What's going on?
60
I don't know if I can believe the news
61
I don't know if I can believe the news
62
They can do anything these days
63
They can do anything with computers these days
64
(iv. Why is Nothing Ever True?)
65
Remember a time when you thought that you mattered,
66
Believed in the school song, die for your country - a country that cared for you
67
All in it together?
68
If it ever was more than a lie or some naive romantic notion
69
Well, it's all shattered now
70
It's all shattered now
71
Why is nothing ever true?
72
Why is nothing ever true?
73
Why is nothing ever true?
74
Well do you remember a time when you thought you belonged to something more than you?
75
A country that cared for you
76
A national anthem you could sing without feeling used or ashamed
77
You poor sods have only yourselves to blame
78
On your knees, peasant
79
You're living for the New King
80
You're living for the New King
81
You're living for the New King.
