Lyrics


The future teaches you to be alone, the present to be afraid and cold
So if I can shoot rabbits then I can shoot fascists

Bullets for your brain today but we'll forget it all again
Monuments put from pen to paper turns me into a gutless wonder

And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
Will be next will be next will be next

Gravity keeps my head down or is it maybe shame
At being so young and being so vain

Holes in your head today but I'm a pacifist
I've walked La Ramblas but not with real intent

And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
Will be next will be next will be next

And on the streets tonight - an old man plays
With newspaper cuttings of his glory days

And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
Will be next will be next will be next
