For The Record Songtext
von Gilbert O’Sullivan

So many people look at me
I don′t know why they do
Maybe it's just because I am
What it is I want to
What it is I want to

So many lovers in this world
It′s with their own excuse
Oh, I run the risk of falling out
When there's so much to lose

And while in debating the rights and the wrongs
All of you see a country has grown
A force for the good is no good if you have no home


So many offers coming in
Hard to know where to turn
Go for the one that says with us
Profits of those we learnt
Never a penny earned

And while you have nothing to do
With the way you now see your country being run
The party that worries the least is the one that won

So many measures put in place
In places, I believe
Most if not all can only help
Others, though, we don't need
And so for the record, let it be known
What for the record it means
