It'll Be a Long Time Lyrics

All this time has whittled away Like so many days in one Back and forth the leaders sway Backin' it up with guns
Superpowers flex their wings Hold the world on puppet strings Egos will feed while citizens bleed That's always the way it goes
When will the world listen to reason I've a feelin' it'll be a long time When will the truth come in to season I've a feelin' it'll be a long time I've a feelin' it'll be a long time
All the want is what they can defend Before their time is up Make the same mistakes again Heard it all before
Superpowers flex their wings Hold the world on puppet strings Egos will feed while citizens bleed That's always the way it goes
When will the world listen to reason I've a feelin' it'll be a long time When will the truth come in to season I've a feelin' it'll be a long time I've a feelin' it'll be a long time I've a feelin' it'll be a long time
Well if they tried, maybe they'd see It'd do a little good to let the world be free Handshake and a smile, gets you on through Then turn it all around with a suicide move
But you know it's not foolin' anyone but me You gotta make yourself see what you want to see But you know it's not foolin' anyone but me You gotta make yourself see what you want to see
I say yeah, "Superpowers flex their wings Hold the world on puppet strings Egos will feed while citizens bleed That's always the way it goes"
When will the world listen to reason I've a feelin' it'll be a long time When will the truth come in to season I've a feelin' it'll be a long time I've a feelin' it'll be a long time
