The bigger picture Lyrics

Do you wish that you were somewhere else?

Somewhere more endearing

Because there's just too much given by mouth

And there's nil by hearing

Cos nobody here seems to stop and think

Other than to choose what they should drink

It's a place where opinions come one-sided

And nothing but the trivial gets decided

Don't you ever stop to think about the bigger picture?

Are you scared cos you don't know how hard it's gonna hit ya?

Is it like a baggy coat that's never gonna fit ya?

So do you think it's not for you the bigger picture?

In your little world where everything's clear and nothing's complicated

Where prejudice is rife and driven by fear, and nothing's overstated

Everybody has their point of view

Dangerous for us but not for you

Black or white wrong or right who needs proof?

When you know it all who needs the truth?

Don't you ever stop to think about the bigger picture?

Are you scared cos you don't know how hard it's gonna hit ya?

Is it like a baggy coat that's never gonna fit ya?

So do you think it's not for you the bigger picture?

How can it reach ya

What will it teach ya?

It just doesn't feature

The bigger picture

Is it all too much for your little self to take well can you cope?

Do you really know what's going on we can only hope?

Thinking with your eyes closed as you do

Is never ever gonna be good for you

And speaking your mind so forthrightly, and nothing's really understood

So don't you ever stop to think about the bigger picture?

Are you scared cos you don't know how hard it's gonna hit ya?

Is it like a baggy coat that's never gonna fit ya?

So do you think it's not for you the bigger picture?

Don't you ever stop to think about the bigger picture?

Are you scared cos you don't know how hard it's gonna hit ya?
