lyrics
La La Lie (x8)
They're watching me, they're watching me, they're watching me.
It used to be innocent until proven guilty.
It used to be, it used to be, it used to be,
self-evident that we were born free.
Can't you see the level of hypocrisy?
You make it impossible for us to agree.
'cause I am a citizen, not your enemy.
Not your enemy, no.
La La Lie (x4)
We don't have the answers so stop asking me.
Your questions are driving me to insanity.
If you will not recognise our liberties,
why should we recognise your authority?
We all see, yeah we all see this third degree
You try to be giving us invisibly.
Watching me, they're watching me, you're watching me.
It used to be innocent until proven guilty.
La La Lie (x8)
They're watching me, they're watching me, they're watching me.
It used to be innocent until proven guilty.
It used to be, it used to be, it used to be,
self-evident that we were born free.
Can't you see the level of hypocrisy?
You make it impossible for us to agree.
'cause I am a citizen, not your enemy.
Not your enemy, no.
La La Lie (x4)
We don't have the answers so stop asking me.
Your questions are driving me to insanity.
If you will not recognise our liberties,
why should we recognise your authority?
We all see, yeah we all see this third degree
You try to be giving us invisibly.
Watching me, they're watching me, you're watching me.
It used to be innocent until proven guilty.
La La Lie (x8)

Good Days
by Beats & Pieces Big BandBeats & Pieces are a Manchester jazz institution, and their latest record is special. We're a bit biased though, 'cause our very own Emily (Baritone Sax) and Graham (Trumpet) are on it.
