I sit in my flat watch the late night news
'Bout troubles with turks and troubles with Jews
Gallons of beer stream into my mouth
They've shot a prime minister somewhere down south

Murder in the east and murder in the west
The girl on page 3 got an over sized chest
Germany's united and Fergi's got a new dress
And the man in the tele says it's blue

I should have known better
But no one told me
I should have known better
But no one told me

I'm not interested in the political scenes
Just when they raise my taxes 'cause I know what it means
But how can they say that there's not enough to eat
Look in my fridge it's filled with meat

Cut the womens liberation, cut the womens education
One iron lady was enough for this nation
Might be that I don't know what I'm saying here
But I'm just interested in tele and beer

I should have known better
But no one told me
I should have known better
But no one told me

I want it all
I want it now
I want it all
I want it now

I should have known better
