It'll Be a Long Time |
All this time has whittled away |
Like so many days in one |
Back and forth, the leaders sway |
Backing it up with guns |
Superpowers flex their wings |
Hold the world on puppet strings |
Egos will feed |
While citizens bleed |
That’s always the way it goes |
When will the world listen to reason? |
I’ve a feeling it’ll be a long time |
When will the truth come in to season? |
I’ve a feeling it’ll be a long time |
All they want is what they can defend |
Before their time is up |
Make the same mistakes again |
Heard it all before |
Superpowers flex their wings |
Hold the world on puppet strings |
Egos will feed |
While citizens bleed |
That’s always the way it goes |
Well, if they tried, maybe they’d see |
It’d do a little good to let the world be free |
Handshake and a smile gets you on through |
Then turn it all around with a suicide move |
But you know it’s not fooling anyone but me |
You gotta make yourself see what you want to see |
But you know it’s not fooling anyone but me |
You gotta make yourself see what you want to see |
Oh, yeah! |
Superpowers flex their wings |
Hold the world on puppet strings |
Egos will feed |
While citizens bleed |
That’s always the way it goes |
When will the world listen to reason? |
I’ve a feeling it’ll be a long time |
When will the truth come in to season? |
I’ve a feeling it’ll be a long time |
I’ve a feeling it’ll be a long time |
