Elton John - Fascist Faces lyrics

Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album the fox<br><br>I read about how you're slow with the truth<br>Like any old aesop's fable<br>But when you're turtlesque, I'm a hare's breath<br>Into payment under the table<br>But some journalist got his mug shot kit<br>And his briefcase on his lap<br>But I'm tired of being linked with the k.g.b.<br>And all that political crap<br><br>`cause I've seen your fascist faces<br>On the cover of the national papers<br>Staring out in black and white<br>From the tall gray walls on the other side<br>When I see your fascist faces<br>Then I know I've had enough<br>Trying to trace it or erase it<br>Is it foolproof or a bluff<br><br>If the boy had been blessed he'd have been arrested<br>On a charge of wearing red shoes<br>But if your pants are blue you got nothing to lose<br>It'll make you a patriot through and through
