If I don´t do my homeworkyou´ll say it´s not my fault
I will tell a story and you will add the salt
forget the institution that judges us by day
we don´t need to bother
we´re rich enough to pay

and we´ll be running the country
into the ground
into the ground
we´ll be running the country
all is allowed
all is allowed
we´ll be running the country
mummy is proud
daddy is proud
we´ll be leaving the country
living in clouds
living in clouds
the soft electric blanket makes me feel so warm
I won´t swap it for money if we need that we´ll print more

if everything is easy and there´s nothing much to do
I´ll bet that someone else has been fighting your wars for you

and we´ll be running the country
into the ground
into the ground
we´ll be running the country
all is allowed
all is allowed
we´ll be running the country
mummy is proud
daddy is proud
we´ll be leaving the country
living in clouds
living in clouds

living in clouds
into the clouds
into the clouds
into the clouds

we´ll live on the beach in Australia
our parents won´t let us be failures
we´ll take to the stars with these talents of ours and we´ll feel so high
we´ll feel so high
we´ll feel so high

and we´ll be running the country
into the ground
into the ground
we´ll be running the country
all is allowed
all is allowed
we´ll be running the country
mummy is proud
daddy is proud
we´ll be leaving the country
living in clouds
living in clouds
