I may be old but ....

<HTML>... I've still got 'This is my truth, tell me yours' by the Manic Street Preachers, and very good it is, too. Ahem;

If You Tolerate This Your Baby Will Be Next (not Park-Laine)

Goliath forces you to be alone
Making Thursday be afraid and cold
And if we can shoot ’Thals
Then we can shoot LiteraTecs

Aornis in your brain today
But you'll forget it all again
Monuments to the Boojummed
Turns you into a bookless wonder

And if you tolerate this
Then your baby will be Next
And if you tolerate this
Then your baby will be Next
Will be Next
Will be Next
Will be Next

Goliath try to keep you down
Or is it the price of fame?
You’re trying to stay alive, and stay sane

Holes in your life today
But you’re an optimist
You're out of Swindon
But not out of the game

And if you tolerate this
Then your baby will be Next
And if you tolerate this
Then your baby will be Next
Will be Next
Will be Next
Will be Next

Will you be left where you can only play
With newspaper cuttings of your glory days?

And if you tolerate this
Then your baby will be Next
And if you tolerate this
Then your baby will be Next
Will be Next
Will be Next
Will be Next</HTML>
