[Verse 1]
It's just a magic trick
With the flick of a card
And you're everyone's daddy
And you're a media star
And the grand old gentry
You know they're so composed
While they take the power
From right under your nose
[Chorus]
And you thought that you'd never see the day
When the whole damn thing could be taken away
When the crowd starts waving that serious flag
And the boots start marching, there ain't no turning back
Turning back
[Verse 2]
And when the whole thing started
You thought, "It's only a joke"
You had a couple of laughs
Every time he spoke
'Cause there's no reason to worry
No, it can't happen here
'Cause it's a Third World story
And we got nothing to fear
It's just a magic trick
With the flick of a card
And you're everyone's daddy
And you're a media star
And the grand old gentry
You know they're so composed
While they take the power
From right under your nose
[Chorus]
And you thought that you'd never see the day
When the whole damn thing could be taken away
When the crowd starts waving that serious flag
And the boots start marching, there ain't no turning back
Turning back
[Verse 2]
And when the whole thing started
You thought, "It's only a joke"
You had a couple of laughs
Every time he spoke
'Cause there's no reason to worry
No, it can't happen here
'Cause it's a Third World story
And we got nothing to fear
