Red Herring Reality Lyrics

Red herring reality

Where plastic plants grow from plastic pots

And there's nothing that is not

For sale

I was in Forbury gardens

When I saw a man looking angry

At the economic state we are in

I was smoking out the back

When I heard an argument over some divorce papers

I saw someone miss the train yesterday

look at their watch and shout at the conductor

And I saw someone pick up the phone

And tell someone that they love them, when they didn't..

I saw three ducks die cause they had been intoxicated

By bread

I saw a women crying cause she had lost her son

To the red sun newspaper

2023 red herring reality

Red herring reality

Where plastic plants grow from plastic pots

And there's nothing that is not

For sale

I saw two children fighting over a pound coin

I smelt the heroin as I walked down church street

I'd heard the economy was in a bad state

I don't have a watch and maybe that's why I'm late

Red herring reality

Where plastic plants grow from plastic pots

And there's nothing that is not

For sale

Oh no there's nothing that is not

Reality

Where plants and flowers grow from the ground

And there is nothing that is truly

For sale
