  • Nobody in charge
    Take the carpet, take the TV
    No policeman at large
    There’s nobody in charge

    Politicians that waffle endlessly
    People just don’t want to see
    Getting’ paid too much for screwin’ up
    Don’t you think everyone’s had enough?

    There’s nobody in charge
    At that we know, that we know about
    There’s nobody in charge
    Nobody seems to have any clout
    And speculation across the nation
    Media implantation rules the day
    Brainwash is easy, if everybody’s lazy
    Everything always looks so grey

    Nobody in charge
    Take the fridge, take the TV
    No policeman at large
    There’s nobody in charge, charge, charge
    Charge

    Speculation across the nation
    Media implantation rules the day
    Brainwash is easy, if everybody’s lazy
    And everything always just looks grey

    Nobody in charge
    At least that we, even know about
    No policeman at large
    Nobody seems to have any clout

    Politicians waffle endlessly
    People just don’t even want to see
    Getting paid for screwing up
    Don’t you think everybody’s
    Had enough, enough, enough

    Nobody’s in charge nobody’s in charge
    There’s nobody in charge, charge
    Nobody in charge, looks like

    There’s nobody in charge Writer/s: Van Morrison
