Roger Waters - Flickering Flame lyrics

I don't need anyone's love

I couldn't afford it anyway

With my penny's worth of hope

It's not funny but it's a joke

And I got a good one for the collection agency

It's a wish

That I could wish the world away

Don't watch TV it's all lies

I watch TV day and night

I believe everything I see

And I can't turn it off

The only thing that held me together in the good old day

Was a wish

That I could wish the world away

Where's the message in the bottles

Where's the miracle in the pills

Where's the nurse with that needle

Where's all of my free will

Count down backwards from ten and everything's okay

You can wish the world away
