Lyrics Power Doesn't Run on Nothing - The Thermals

Power Doesn't Run on Nothing

We are just a child
We are just a child
We are wide awake
But our legs are shaky
We’re unaware
We’re hyper-active
We stare into space with grims on our faces
So give us what we’re asking for
Cause either way, we’re gonna take it Our power doesn’t run on nothing
We need the land you’re standing on so lets go Move it We are old as hell
We are old and tell the children
When to kill and when to sit still
Everyone doing what we say
Till our dieing day, till our breath is empty
So give us what we’re asking for
Cause either way we’re gonna take it Our power doesn’t run on nothing
We need the land you’re standing on so Lets go Move it Yeah you need to let it go Move it Yeah we’re, more equal,
We’ll move you people,
Off the planet cause we need the fuel
So, so let the beat roll over,
The beat roll over, everyone in line, one in line
So, so let the beat roll over,
The beat roll over, everyone in line
One at a time
They’ll give us what we’re asking for,
Cause god is with us, and our god’s the richest
Our power doesn’t run on nothing,
It runs on blood,
And blood is easy to obtain when you have no shame
When you have no shame
So let the sun bathe
Let the sun bathe
We’ll still have life, we’ll burn even brighter
We’ll drain the well, turn all to hell,
Leave the earth’s surface to the worthless dirt
Let the beat roll over, let the beat roll over,
To everyone in mind, everyone in line
You think we’ll cease?
You see a reason,
You think it’s fair?
To think it’s fair,
You think we care?
