Don't think of tomorrow

Do it today

Let's live our lives in yesterday

The lies you're spreading

Were dangerous then

I can't watch you spread them all again

You tell me we're more equal

Than other men I know

But your advice just can't be right

And can't be left to grow



It's hard to reason

It's hard to see

Why you never learn from history

You came downtrodden

And you learned to walk

Now you want to march before you talk

You're looking for a scapegoat

A victim or a fool

And though you're free now that don't mean

You've freedom to be cruel



(Chorus)

Don't give me opinions

When you can't understand truth

I can't listen to a word you say

You haven't any proof

I believe in standing up

For what I think is true

But you hand me all this hatred

And I just can't believe in you



You're being twisted

You're being used

And you'll never see my point of view

You're kicking back now

But can't you see

That what you're kicking ain't your enemy

You're taking easy answers

Believing age-old lies

Though once oppressed you're like the rest

And just as much despised



Tell me all your problems

How you never got a break

And now you're free you're telling me

That what you see you'll take

It's all so stupid

It's all so sad

That you've had to have that life you've had



That system's gone now

Everything has changed

And there's no-one left to take the blame

You've got to start re-building

Re-wrinting you're own rules

Get it right don't end up like

Those bullet-headed fools
