Manic Street Preachers, “The love of Richard Nixon”

The world on your shoulders / The love of your mother / The fear of the future / The best years behind you / The world is getting older / The times they fall behind you / The need it still grows stronger / The best years never found you

The love of Richard Nixon, death without assasination / The love of Richard Nixon, yeah they all betrayed you / The love of Richard Nixon, death without assasination / Yeah, they all betrayed you / Yeah, and your Country too

Love build around the sandy beaches / Love rains down like Vietnam’s leeches / Richard III in the White House / Cowering behind divided curtains

The world is getting older / The times they fall behind you / The need it still grows stronger / The best years never found you

Ah, the love of Richard Nixon, death without assasination / The love of Richard Nixon, yeah they all betrayed you / The love of Richard Nixon, death without assasination / Yeah, they all betrayed you / Yeah, and your Country too

The love of Richard Nixon, death without assasination / The love of Richard Nixon, yeah they all betrayed you / People forget China, and your war on cancer / Yeah, they all betrayed you / Yeah, and your Country too

«In all the decisions I have made in my public life, I have always tried to do what was best for the Nation. I have never been a quitter»
