Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling happy now Did we rid the world of evil Can we get along somehow Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling safer now Did we save ourselves from Satan Or enshrine a sacred cow In ’91 we watched in awe those pin-point bombing raids Back then our boys were hunting down that evil wotsisname With surgical precision we would exorcise the rot And spill the blood of innocents we certainly would not But spill it did as we looked on with incredulity Surely not - they promised we’d be home in time for tea Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling happy now Did we rid the world of evil Can we get along somehow Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling safer now Did we save ourselves from Satan Or enshrine a sacred cow Forward on a decade, glassy towers tumble down Within a day we all know who to hate and who to hound But this one hides away in caves, he isn’t playing fair So what good luck his predecessing villain is still there Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling happy now Did we rid the world of evil Can we get along somehow Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling safer now Did we save ourselves from Satan Or enshrine a sacred cow Sure enough tomorrow we’ll find someone else to blame I’m opening a book if you want to guess at his name And we can hunt that tyrant down from here to kingdom come But mark my words it won’t be bringing peace to anyone If we really want to cure this world and rid it of its ills Perhaps we should bombard the poor and needy with goodwill Stop pouring all our efforts into settling the score Forget what we’re against and demonstrate what we are for Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling happy now Did we rid the world of evil Can we get along somehow Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling safer now Did we save ourselves from Satan Or enshrine a sacred cow Another ten years later, suddenly out of the blue That nice man in the White House has some news for me and you We’ve got our man, it took a while, we’re sorry for the wait But hey, we’re on the way to one big happy global state Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling happy now Did we rid the world of evil Can we get along somehow Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling safer now Did we save ourselves from Satan Or enshrine a sacred cow Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling happy now Did we rid the world of evil Can we get along somehow Whoops, there goes another scapegoat Are we feeling safer now Did we save ourselves from Satan Or enshrine a sacred cow Whoops, there goes another scapegoat
