Lyrics

Tell us Mr. Nice Guy
was it somethig that you said?
did it really happen
or was it in your head
and did you bring believers
and plant them here to lie !
discuss important matters
of how to change out lives

No-one's coming outside anymore
No-one's coming outside anymore
I look to the window
the radio explains
No-one's coming outside again

And was it worth the trouble
did it prove a point of view
I must admit it looked alright
in the colours of a fool !
and would you do it all again
if you were let outside
you're telling that you wouldn't
but then again you lied...

No-one's coming outside anymore
No-one's coming outside anymore
I look to the window
the radio explains
No-one's coming outside again

I'm sorry that I understood
that you would be afraid
the lights of Piccadilly
the riots in Belgrade
dealing cards for winners
'cause winners never lose
winning is a way of life
or just a game of fools

No-one's coming outside anymore
No-one's coming outside anymore
I look to the window
the radio explains
No-one's coming outside again

No-one's coming outside anymore
No-one's coming outside anymore
I look to the window
the radio explains
No-one's coming outside again
