the tangent - the fine line lyrics

“have you seen the papers today?” he asks
but he knows the answer, he posed himself the question
supping up the misery at “the end of the world”

and twice a week it ends badly like this
the half_way point between work and the apocalypse
got a coffee on his desktop and a gasmask in the drawer

somewhere in the darkness
he finds a way, another day is not out of the question despite media congestion
prophecies of doom

its improbable that we are here at all
they’ll tell you gleefully while shouting from the walls
of video screens that never stop talking
and if they hold the war off for another week
he could finish those figures, his boss won’t freak
they can have judgement day
with a balancing ledger

somewhere in the cacophony
there’s a good idea, one not based on fear
but the government’s on vacation, and the thoughts of the nation are not on the side of this great divide
its a fine line
the fine line
the fine line
and we can hope
the fine line will bring “them” to heel
‘cos it’s no joke!
you don’t need a “war on woke”
or anything else for that matter

“did you see the tv tonight?” he asks
he knows they’ve got him on a short rope
didn’t make things any better
in fact, they got worse

reporters are talking like they’ve got it made
like a top ten single on its very first play
and they know its gonna be a hit
its gonna run and run and run and run and run

and can we take this as read
that the truth is now dead

such a fine line
such a fine line

somehow _ there’s a dichotomy
can we destroy the world to sell the story
its all there in black and white in the daily tory

the fine line!
the fine line!
the fine line!
and we can hope
the fine line will bring them to heel
the fine line between the government and you
the fine line
its a cliche but nothing they say is true!
the fine line
they’re running a world that isn’t real
but the fine line will bring them, bring them to heel
all the tyrants _ the despots _ the “musks”
they have the power but they don’t fool us, no
they’ve got the platforms and they want more
but they need content and theirs is such a bore
a fine line between truth and media
a fine line because neither of them need ya
a fine line because the knee_jerks work
(a fine line) but the fine line will bring them to heel

fine line
