Singer:proclaimers, the

everybody's a victim

seems we're going that way

everybody's a victim

we're becoming like the usa

everybody's a victim

seems we're going that way

everybody's a victim

we're becoming like the usa

i demand recompense

for sitting on the fence

throughout my adult life

you've got to put my parents in jail

for raising me in fife

it doesn't matter what i do

you have to say it's alright

and i need you to send somebody around

to tuck me in at night

because. everybody's a victim

seems we're going that way

everybody's a victim

we're becoming like the usa

well it's not my fault

that i'm positive

i just stuck a needle in my arm

and nobody told me

that sixty a day

would do me any harm

my liver's shrivelling like a leaf

but it's not the whiskey that doo's it

call me irresponsible

and i'm really going to lose it

because. everybody's a victim

seems we're going that way

everybody's a victim

we're becoming like the usa

wear a ribbon for this

hug a stranger for that

light a candle to the dead

and soon you'll forget

that you ever had

a brain inside our head

we value everythin the same

we turn it into farce

so we don't know a crisis

'till it kicks us up the arse

because. everybody's a victim

seems we're going that way

everybody's a victim

we're becoming like the usa

everybody's a victim

seems we're going that way

everybody's a victim

we're becoming like the usa

everybody's a victim

seems we're going that way

everybody's a victim

we're becoming like the usa
