Settlement

Dave Cousins

[Verse 1]
There comes a time
When every settlement is due
No compromise
No other point of view

[Verse 2]
There comes a time
When no one ever takes the blame
No sentiment
Whoever's in the frame

[Chorus 1]
Strapped down in a cold town
Dying to pay the rent
What the masterminds are selling you
Is Heaven Scent
Ring around the rules
We’re nobody's fools

[Verse 3]
There comes a time
When consultation is a lie
No double deals
No more humble pie

[Verse 4]
There comes a time
When retribution is the key
No change of mind
Whatever is will be

[Chorus 2]
Chaos in the system
Makes the stomach churn
What the charlatans are selling you
Is crash and burn
Ring around the rules
We're nobody’s fools

[Chorus 3]
Did you get a summons
When the doorbell rang?
What the autocrats are selling you
Is Sturm und Drang
Ring around the rules
We're nobody's fools

[Refrain]
Ring around the rules
We're nobody's fools
