lyrics

Well I remember when we met that day,
We said everything that we could say,
Politics were getting old,
Politicians getting older,
Throwing all that they could find,
A last attempt to steal your mind,

You took me by surprise,
I will tell you no lies,
What's good for you,
What's good for you,
What's good for you,
What's good for you,
Must be good for me too,

Well three years later and we meet again,
I see the strain on you, my friend,
We share the same old points of view,
We know just what we want to do,
The headlines haven't changed at all,
Same old writing on the wall,

You took me by surprise,
I will tell you no lies,
What's good for you,
What's good for you,
What's good for you,
What's good for you,
Must be good for me too,

They can send a man to space,
And they can build the tools to end our race,
Just a creature here on earth,
We all deserve what we're worth,
A place to lay our heads,
And to see our children fed,

You took me by surprise,
I will tell you no lies,
What's good for you,
What's good for you,
What's good for you,
What's good for you,
Must be good for me too,
Must be good for me too,
Must be good for me too,

I'll take you by surprise
