| You’ll go right where you’ve got to
|
| There was no good reason not to
|
| Killer nights you would have died for
|
| To consider and provide for
|
| To protect and take good care of
|
| They were never made aware of
|
| What they were putting you through
|
| So you did what you had to
|
| And you held your head high
|
| You helped your family get through it
|
| They wanted to control you, but they couldn’t
|
| You just wouldn’t let them do it
|
| Now you couldn’t and you knew it
|
| Not on your watch, not in this life
|
| No, not Hugo’s wife
|
| There were rules out on the front stairs
|
| Acquisitions based on their affairs
|
| Ignorance that was appalling
|
| Which it was when they came calling
|
| With the list they put you onto
|
| Who do who and why they want to
|
| Ruin more than just careers
|
| There were rules on the front stairs
|
| And you held your head high
|
| You helped your family get through it
|
| They wanted to control you, but they couldn’t
|
| You just wouldn’t let them do it
|
| Now you couldn’t and you knew it
|
| Not on your watch, not in this life
|
| No, not Hugo’s wife
|
| Are you not or have you ever been?
|
| Is there anyone that you’ll turn in?
|
| Our best advice would be to save yourselves
|
| Don’t be shy, lie and comply
|
| Sit by while the accusations fly
|
| Free and forward thinking’s being shelved
|
| The radicals were refugees
|
| There really were no guarantees
|
| Like sanity and logic would return
|
| Political audacity
|
| That will go down in history
|
| A lesson that we really didn’t learn
|
| And you held your head high
|
| You helped your family get through it
|
| They wanted to control you, but they couldn’t
|
| You just wouldn’t let them do it
|
| Now you couldn’t and you knew it
|
| Not on your watch, not in this life
|
| No, not his wife
|
| No, not Hugo’s wife
|
| Not Hugo’s wife
|
| No, not Hugo’s wife |
