We won’t be fooled again, by your miracle claims and praises.
We won’t be impressed by unclear phrases;
from now until the end.
You won’t pull the wool over our eyes,
not one in a hundred tries.
We won’t be misled by your lies...
from now until the end.
None of us will be “suckered in”.
Maybe in the past but never again.
We’ll all stick together through thick and thin...
from now until the end.
A hundred times we’ve trusted you.
Each and every time you’ve ran us through.
Refuse to listen is what we’ll do!...
From now until the end.
In case you’re wondering your creditability is shot.
Regardless of whether you like it or not.
A permanent lack of communication
is what we’ve got.
From now until the end.
You must think that we are fools,
for letting you get away with breaking our rules.
From now on we’ll be as stubborn as mules.
From now until the end.
We won’t take any more of your abuse.
To try any more will prove no use.
Because of you our tempers have a short fuse.
From now until the end.
You plead with us and begin to cry.
Go back on our word?We’d rather die!
Oh, what the heck; we’ll give you one more try....
but we’re warning you.... We won’t be fooled again!
