Champagne Socialist Lyrics

CHAMPAGNE SOCIALIST

I see
You are a study in hypocrisy.
For I hear
That you are not as moral as you may appear.
I see red mist -
You're a champagne socialist!
Let's raise a toast
To our host's sham pain.

I taste
The bitter flavour of the whine you laced.
And I smell
The stale aroma of the lie you try and sell.
I see red mist -
You're a champagne socialist!
Let's raise a toast
To our host's sham pain.

To you, integrity
Is such a foreign policy.
But your bleeding heart and manifesto of lies
Won't preserve your disguise.
I touch
Upon the matter you revere so much.
But I sense
A shade will lift and cast a light on your pretence.

I must insist -
You're a champagne socialist!
Let's end the boast
Of our host's sham pain.
