[Intro: Richard Nixon]
"I want to tell you my side of the case."
"I want to tell you..."
[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
You had something to hide
Should have hidden it, shouldn't you?
Now you're not satisfied
With what you're being put through
[Chorus: Dave Gahan]
It's just time to pay the price
For not listening to advice
And deciding in your youth
On the policy of truth
[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
Things could be so different now
It used to be so civilised
You will always wonder how
It could have been if you'd only lied
[Post-Chorus: Dave Gahan]
Never again is what you swore
The time before
[Bridge: Richard Nixon]
"I want to tell you my side of the case."
[Post-Chorus: Dave Gahan]
Never again is what you swore
The time before
Never again is what you swore
The time before
[Chorus: Dave Gahan]
It's too late to change events
It's time to face the consequence
For delivering the proof
In the policy of truth
[Outro: Richard Nixon]
"I want to tell you..."
"Everybody can't get what they want."
"I want to tell you my side of the case."
"I want to tell you..."
[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
You had something to hide
Should have hidden it, shouldn't you?
Now you're not satisfied
With what you're being put through
[Chorus: Dave Gahan]
It's just time to pay the price
For not listening to advice
And deciding in your youth
On the policy of truth
[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
Things could be so different now
It used to be so civilised
You will always wonder how
It could have been if you'd only lied
[Post-Chorus: Dave Gahan]
Never again is what you swore
The time before
[Bridge: Richard Nixon]
"I want to tell you my side of the case."
[Post-Chorus: Dave Gahan]
Never again is what you swore
The time before
Never again is what you swore
The time before
[Chorus: Dave Gahan]
It's too late to change events
It's time to face the consequence
For delivering the proof
In the policy of truth
[Outro: Richard Nixon]
"I want to tell you..."
"Everybody can't get what they want."
