It's A Mistake
Men At Work
-------------------------------

Jump down the shelters to get away.
The boys are cockin' up their guns.
Tell us general, is it party time?
If it is can we all come?

Don't think that we don't know;
Don't think that we're not tryin'.
Don't think we move too slow;
It's no use after-cryin',

Saying it's a mistake, it's a mistake,
It's a mistake, it's a mistake.

After the laughter has died away
And all the boys have had their fun;
No surface noise now, not much to say,
We got the bad guys on the run.

Don't try to say you're sorry,
Don't say he drew his gun,
They've gone and grabbed old Ronnie.
He's not the only one

Saying it's a mistake, it's a mistake,
It's a mistake, it's a mistake.

Tell us commander, what do you think?
'Cos we know that you love all that power.
Is it on then, are we on the brink?
Wish you'd all throw in the towel.

We'll not fade out too soon,
Not in this finest hour.
Whistle your favourite tune,
We'll send the card and flower

Saying it's a mistake, it's a mistake,
It's a mistake, it's a mistake.

It's a mistake
(It's a mistake)
It's a mistake
(It's a mistake)
It's a mistake
(It's a mistake)
It's a mistake
(It's a mistake)
It's a mistake
It's a mistake
(It's a mistake)
(It's a mistake)
