lyrics
Exaggerated/ let them know how busy you are
Overrated and in your heart you know you won't be a star
Oooh it's a thankless game
The lights are never on
It's a thankless game
You did it again out of nowhere/ out of nowhere
Who'll foot the bills of your strange games/ estranged
Is Grenfell to blame oh for shame/ oh for shame
Story remains the same/ going nowhere/ nowhere
Your mother's grave, how times will change, the flowers won't grow
Those million candles burning for the love that never did show
Oooh it's a thankless game
The lights are never on
It's a thankless game
You did it again out of nowhere/ out of nowhere
Who'll foot the bills of your strange games/ estranged
Is Grenfell to blame oh for shame/ oh for shame
Tories remain the same/ going nowhere/ nowhere
Oooh it's a thankless game
The light's are never on
It's a thankless game
