There's no equality here

There's no equality anywhere

And every failing face

Is quickly replaced

By one you can't lose



It's an illusion

I'll even do revolution

That's never meant to occur

Won't happen to her

Won't happen to you



And you let me down slowly

Let me down slow and you turned me around

Let me down easy

Let yourself go, now you're goin' to town



Baby, baby, can't you see

What this hypocrisy is doin' to me?

We should've kicked over the ladders

From the start



You used to be my lover

You used to be my soul, soul brother

I used to believe

That you could conceive

Conceive with my love



But you let me down slowly

You let me down slow and you turned me around

Let me down easy

Let yourself go, now you're goin' to drown



Baby, baby, can't you see

What this absurdity is doin' to me?

We should've kicked over the ladders

From the start

There's no equality



Nobody knows the trouble I've seen

No one supposes just how mean I can be

I play the victim and I really care

And all I've ever wanted is

Everything I'm gonna have



There's no equality here

There's no equality on earth I fear

There are so many ..

The boss and the border

It's me or it's you



That's why I let you down slowly

Let you down slow and I turned you around

Let you down easy

Let myself go, now we're both set to drown



Baby, baby, can't you see

What this futility is doin' to me?

We should've kicked over the ladders

From the start

There's no equality
