Flick Of The Finger - Beady Eye
Woke up this morning,
I was laid out flat on the dark side,
With the ruin of a room on the wrong side,
I took a needle sew myself right back at the seams.
I saw my universal gleam,
I see the wonder of life fair up for the one.
Just takin' a walk in the sun,
In time,
In just a second,
Like the ghost of a bad idea,
And I feel myself getting the fear,
Come on...
Have we decided if we like being part of the plan?
The sands are shifting and there's no where to land.
Its on...
It doesn't matter if all the best tickets are sold.
And all the old stories are told.
I know...
You're gonna tell me 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.
