Music and lyrics by Dean Whitbread

lyrics

How can you know what you've done to me?
I was living the week for the weekend's story
And all of my highs were temporary
Living a life full of lies and misery
But I'll feel fine in a little while
I'll twist my lips in a permanent smile
Oh what it is to be a happy child
Oh what it is to be reconciled

How can you know?
Now I'm a changed man
'Cause I understand
I played a part in your plans
How can you know
Now I'm a changed man
'Cause I understand
I played a part in your plans

What do you say to the other boys
Testosterone and techno toys
Fire and blood and broken necks
Will shatter their dreams of permanent sex

How can you know?
Now I'm a changed man
'Cause I understand
I played a part in your plans
How can you know?
Now I'm a changed man
'Cause I understand
I played a part in your plans

Write me down on the list of places, list of names and list of places
(How can you know? How can you know?)
Count me out and count me in, it's a race to the finish and nobody's winning
(How can you know? How can you know?)
Every Friday got a pay packet, dress me up in a Japanese jacket
(How can you know? How can you know?)
African girl's got a mouth to feed, you and me slaves to the free economy
Free economy, free economy, free economy..

How can you know?
(How can you know?)
Now I'm a changed man
'Cause I understand
(How can you know?)
I played a part in your plans
How can you know?
(How can you know?)
Now I'm a changed man
'Cause I understand
(How can you know?)
I played a part in your plans
