Weâre pulling hard, weâre on both sides â as if we have a reason why
Weâre going out, weâre coming in, weâre reaching out â itâs stretching thin
Itâs not long until it snaps! Snaps! Snaps!
They tap the lines, they listen in, theyâre doing everything they can
To keep us safe, to hold us dear, to shelter us from what we fear.
Our countries, our fathers, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Our sisters, our daughters, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Give up â donât try. Last chance, last fight.
Youâll go, theyâll come
Iâll hide â Iâll runâ¦
One side signs the bills and controls all the cash, wealthy people living powerful lives.
Other side is calling for revolution, they say âthere is no choice; it is the only way!â
One side signs the bills and controls all the cash: wealthy people!
Everyday weâre searching for trust in the eyes of our senators, of our generalsâ¦
Or the people will rise up!
Our countries, our fathers, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Our sisters, our daughters, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Weâve got people situated in high places now!
