They come
and they take
It's never enough
because they can't
relate to the
real world
Thinking that the oyster
is just for the pearl
they start
those wars
They want to own
the land, sea and
all the stars
and right
those wrongs
They change their history
with their poison
forked tongues
alright, who's they?
A: Maybe it's the
government of today
or B: for the big
business man
Who thinks the whole
world revolves around
him or C: for the
corrupt official
For A and B he be the
man in the middle or D:
for discoverer for Cook
and Columbus and the
pirate plunderers
Doesn't mean I ain't
got no fight now
just because I don't
got a gun
The lyrical is heavier
than lead and
this guitar is my cannon
just like Martin and
Mahatma
I'm gonna love
I'm gonna over come
maybe it's E: for all
of the above
but I don't want to be
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
gonna turn it all around
gonna back it on up
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
gonna turn it all around
gonna back it on up
these men
Who they say we
should follow but
we can't follow men
if their hearts are
hollow and mmm yes
How can we respect
puppet regimes that
we do not elect?
Straight up, straight up,
straight up like Pinocchio
and every time they lie
man the fire just
grows so
Now's time to be part
of the solution
raise your fist
if you believe
in revolution
It doesn't mean I ain't
got no fight now
just because I don't
got a gun
The lyrical is heavier
than lead and
this guitar is my cannon
just like Martin and
Mahatma
I'm gonna love
I'm gonna over come
maybe it's E: for
all of the above but
I don't want to be
Living in a pantomime
Living in a fantasy oh
I don't want to be
don't want to be
I don't want to be
don't want to be no
Living in a pantomime
Living in a fantasy oh
I don't want to be
don't want to be
I don't want to be
don't want to be no
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
gonna turn it all around
gonna back it on up
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
Wrong way going down
the one-way road
gonna turn it all around
gonna back it on up
yeah!
