do you hear the sound?
that's the ghosts of tomorrow
they are playing a requiem, can you dig it?
they have been around, seen a thing or two
will we ever get our shit together
and face the music?
I promise - eternal - if this world should divide
I will be there to ride it out by your side
I promise - eternal - to create, not destroy
for friends and music, free world!!!
all around the town
people roll in their death machines
if you stroll around, mind the toxic waste
in the atomic age
it's been all the rage
to embrace technology
or be forgotten
a wise man once sad
that inventing the bomb
was like handing razor blades
to three year olds
I promise - eternal - if this world should divide
I will be there to ride it out by your side
I promise - eternal - to create, not destroy
for friends and music, free world!!!
so let's all get totally nuclear
careful not to have a personal apocalypse
I went to buy a beer from the store
I was thinking about the third world war
I found five dollars on the ground
my headphones had a heavy sound
so I asked myself, what's the score
rich man - zero, free world - four
