Welcome to the story of

A man who thought he was above it all

The jury will decide the fate

Of cool Britannia's great untouchable

We're gonna find you

Guilty of your crime

For all the times you

Sold us down the line (Sold us down the line)

I spun a line for you (I'm with you whatever)

I told a lie for you (Nothing lasts forever)

I spun a line for you (I'm with you whatever)

I told a lie for you (Nothing lasts forever)

Your ship is sinking

And this rat is gonna drown

What were you thinking?

You almost had your fingers on the crown (Gonna send him down)

I'd die for you, I'd lie for you

I never thought that they would ever hang me out to dry

So now, here I stand, just a raggedy old man

I see when I look down, a scarecrow's shadow on the ground

And all the birds and all the memories I will never scare away

Welcome to the story of

A man who thought he was above it all

The jury will decide the fate

Of cool Britannia's great untouchable

We're gonna find you

Guilty of your crime

For all the times you

Sold us down the line (Sold us down the line)

I spun a line for you (I'm with you whatever)

I told a lie for you (Nothing lasts forever)

I spun a line for you (I'm with you whatever)

I told a lie for you (Nothing lasts forever)

Don't hang me out to dry
