Flick of The Finger

(Say what you believe)

Woke up this morning, I was late

Off out on the dark side

With the moon and the room on the wrong side

I took a needle for myself

Right back at the seams

I saw my universal gleam

I see the wonder of life and look for the wall

Just taking a walk in the sun

In time, in just a second like the ghost of a bad idea

I feel myself getting the fear

Come on, have we decided if we like being part of the plan

It sends us shifting and there's nowhere to land

It's on, it doesn't matter if all of these tickets are sold

And all the old stories are told

I know you're gonna tell me that you hear every word I say

But the future gets written today

Yeah the future gets written today

Don't be deceived when our revolution

Has been finally stamped out

And they pat you eternally on the shoulder

And say that there's no inequality worth

Speaking of and no more reason for fighting

Because if you believe them they will be completely in charge

In their marble homes and granite banks

From which they rob the people of the world

Under the pretense of bringing them culture

Watch out, for as soon as it pleases them they'll send you out

To protect their gold in wars whose weapons

Rapidly developed by servile scientists

Will become more and more deadly

Until they can with a flick of the finger

Tear a million of you to pieces
