Flick of the Finger Songtext
von Beady Eye

(Say what you believe)

Woke up this morning, I was late
Off out on the dark side
With the moon and the room on the wrong side

I took a needle for myself
Right back at the seams
I saw my universal gleam

I see the wonder of life and look for the wall
Just taking a walk in the sun
In time, in just a second like the ghost of a bad idea
I feel myself getting the fear


Come on, have we decided if we like being part of the plan
It sends us shifting and there′s nowhere to land
It's on, it doesn′t matter if all of these tickets are sold
And all the old stories are told
I know you're gonna tell me that you hear every word I say
But the future gets written today
Yeah the future gets written today

Don't be deceived when our revolution
Has been finally stamped out
And they pat you eternally on the shoulder
And say that there′s no inequality worth
Speaking of and no more reason for fighting
Because if you believe them they will be completely in charge
In their marble homes and granite banks
From which they rob the people of the world
Under the pretense of bringing them culture

Watch out, for as soon as it pleases them they′ll send you out
To protect their gold in wars whose weapons
Rapidly developed by servile scientists
Will become more and more deadly
Until they can with a flick of the finger
Tear a million of you to pieces
