They’re rallying
Every day there’s more poor men in the valley where
The have-nots wish for more and
They see the rich looking down from the summit
Both sides know the others have got something they don’t and they want it
I think there’s someone coming
Its sounding like they’re running
The footsteps are getting louder
Theyr’e gonna take the mountain
I think there’s someone coming
They march onwards and upwards
With hammers and sickles
And weapons they found on the floor
They sing songs of liberation and freedom
You’ll only be free when they kick down your door
I think there’s someone coming
It’s sounding like they’re running
The footsteps are getting louder
Theyr’e gonna take the mountain
I think there’s someone coming
The Dalai Lama would give a hungry man the food off his plate
He wouldn’t hesitate, he’d go without
No doubt
But he’s on his way out
And everyone else is getting hungry
We’re not all as strong as he
Would you or I give a hungry man the food off our plates
Would we hesitate or would we go without
I know Ive got my doubts
Everyones getting hungry
I can hear stomachs rumbling
I think there’s someone coming
No need to be frightened but get inside your house cos
I think there’s someone coming

I keep a picture of Marilyn Monroe
On top of my window
She keeps me warm at night
I like her bedroom eyes
She seems so wise to me
I like the way she lies
Through her smile
I see bravery
Just because her lips curl
Doesn’t mean she’s happy
Next to that picture
on the wall theres a Clockwork Orange poster
it’s the future with sharp knives
and its supposed to
Be fine art and so it is
I like the make up on Alex’s eyes
Seems to symbolise
True anarchy realised
But of course it was done
With so much calculation
The chaos was in order by the time
The image was a glint in Anthony Burgess’s eye
Next to that poster
There’s a block mount of Charlie Chaplin
He’s dressed as a tramp
And he’s looking off into the distance
Standing next to a poor boy
I like the expression on Charlie’s face
I like the way his pants aren’t sufficiently held up
By his braces
He knows there are places
Where people are poor
and hungry
Or maybe just bored
And he wants things to change

In my own universe everything just is
There’s no god of empty spaces
Just lots of places that you’ve never been
‘Something was wrong’
He said
‘It shouldn’t take this long’
He put his head in his hands and moved on
In my own universe everyman and his dog was god
They all took turns to rule
Wise men posed as fools
And everyone just got on
‘Something was wrong’
He said
‘It shouldn’t take this long’
He put his head in his hands and moved on
It means a lot to me
The land, the sky, the sea,
The sunshine
But that’s the way it seems to be you can’t reverse entropy
And now I’m blue as the sky
‘But there’s nothing wrong, don’t be sad
It was still the best dream we ever had
One day we’ll remember what it was about again

Click click click click, everyones keeping time
Everyone toes the line but the lines been blurred
And if you heard the things I heard
You wouldn’t take your saviour at his word
I cant see why youd wanna be as thick as thieves with that clique of thick thieves
That cliques sick as a dog and it needs to be put down
Quick please it needs to be put down
One day the world will get to you
And youd better be ready
One day the world will get to you
On your marks, ready, steady, go
We leave when the fires start
When the town cryer stops crying
And starts trying to be a bit more of a man
He does what he can
He always has
No one ever doubted that
That wasn’t the problem to begin with
That was just a symptom
Imagine a whole civilization wasting an existence
Wandering the path of least resistance
Blow up the Wahhibis
And drown the Baptists
It seems like they want out
And that’s what they want out of us
One day the world will get to you
And youd better be ready
