Ra Ra For Red Rocking Horse Lyrics - Xtc

Did you think you knew the game? 

Did you think that fame and fortune's 

All that I had in my head? 

Bang you're dead 

It's not a game I'm gonna play with you 

Did you think I'm high and dry? 

Did you think I'd hide from the 

Tentacles of the deaf dumb and blind 

Their poison inks behind me 

At the bottom of the sea 

And your criticism doesn't worry me 

And I'll sing 

Ra ra for red rocking horse 

Ride on over all remorse 

Ra ra for red rocking horse 

Who won the course 

Despite the fact that 

No one bet him 

Get out 

Did you think you'd tie me up 

Did you think that I would 

Help but dance for your piece of paper 

They'll tame you and set you 

To licking all the foes 

Zap! pow! 

Did you think that I don't feel 

Did you think that I'd simply heal up 

After each ego beating 

We can't go on meeting 

This once in every year 

And in the meantime if we all stand up 

And cheer him up here 

Ra ra for red rocking horse 

Ride on over all remorse 

Ra ra for red rocking horse 

Who won the course 

Despite the fact that 

No one bet him 

They all took their money out 

And they laid it down, down 

On the bright colored manes 

They all took their money out 

But they laid it down, down 

On the different names to ours 

Ra ra for red rocking horse 

Ride on over all remorse 

Ra ra for red rocking horse 

Who won the course 

Despite the fact that 

No one bet him 

Ra ra for red rocking horse 

Ride on over all remorse 

Ra ra for red rocking horse 

Who won the course 

Despite the fact
