Lyrics: Jonny Mellor/Eliot Best
Music: Jonny Mellor/Eliot Best
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees?
In the tightest of Squeezes drop like a Breeze Block
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees?
In the tightest of Squeezes drop like a Breeze Block
I ain't happy living Life on my Knees
To these Liars and Thieves with the vilest of Deeds
Meant to bow to Advertisers and Media Titans
Keep us on the tightest of Leads
Every single one of us would like to be free
So why do we find ourselves tied up to our Enemies?
The Freedom that we try to achieve
Is right in our Face then it flies on the Breeze. Stop!
Master says buy what I need not
Says he'll put Wings on my Reeboks
As long as I'll comply cos he sees
With his all seeing Eye and the Ears that will eavesdrop
I ain't happy living Life on my Knees
To these Tyrants that breed all this Violence and Greed
They promised us Lives full of ease
Doing quite what we pleased, now there's Irons on my Feet
Time after time they implied that we'd feed
On the finest of Wines, yes we'd dine like a Queen
Or a King, with the Spices divine, but the Feast they've designed
is like Beakers of Brine and some Rice and some Peas
You and I've been deceived
I ain't happy living Life on my Knees
Yep, you and I've been deceived
I ain't happy living Life on my Knees
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
But I'm happy living Life on my Knees
If my Life has been seized by the right one to lead
Used to think that I could get by just fine
On my Mind and my Reason combined, didn't need
Anbody else telling me to mind my own P's
And my Q's, drawing Lines to confine
I believed I could fly on my own
Under my own Steam
No Ceiling's too high for my own Dreams
If you'd intimated I could not provide my own Needs
My Reply would have been, you should mind your own Beeswax!
It's fine, just relax!
Don't even rely on the Green Backs
Cos it's my Time to achieve
Gonna fly above the trees
Simples like a Meerkat
Yeah, I'm happy living Life on my Knees
Cos my Wings got burnt, at that Height couldn't breathe
Not the Captain, now I'm just finding a Team
Someone to follow- a Messiah Supreme
A Guide and a Senior, wise and serene
Christ Jesus being the Divine Being seen
Yup. You and I've been deceived
There's only one Life and it's Life on your Knees
What? You and I've been deceived
There's only one Life and it's Life on your Knees
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees?
In the tightest of Squeezes drop like a Breeze Block
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees? What?
Are you happy living Life on your Knees?
In the tightest of Squeezes drop like a Breeze Block
