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
Thats always the way it goes
When will the world listen to reason?
I have a feeling itll be a long time
When will the truth come into season?
I have a feeling itll be a long time
I have a feeling itll 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
Thats always the way it goes
When will the world listen to reason?
I have a feeling itll be a long time
When will the truth come into season?
I have a feeling itll be a long time
I have a feeling itll be a long time
I have a feeling itll be a long time
Well if they tried
Maybe theyd see
Itd 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 its not fooling anyone but me
You gotta make yourself see what you want to see
But you know its not fooling anyone but me
You gotta make yourself see what you want to see, oh yeah!
I say yeah, superpowers flex their wings
Hold the world on puppet strings
Egos will feed
While citizens bleed
Thats always the way it goes
When will the world listen to reason?
I have a feeling itll be a long time
When will the truth come into season?
I have a feeling itll be a long time
I have a feeling itll be a long time
Oh yay, ay, ay
