  S1:
  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
• AmiEmiFCFCG
  S2:
  Bullets for your brain today 

  But we'll forget it all again 

  Monuments put from pen to paper 

  Turns me into a gutless wonder

  R1:
  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

  S3:
  Gravity keeps my head down 

  Or is it maybe shame 

  At being so young 

  And being so vain
• AmiEmiFCFCG
  S4:
  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 

  Will be next, will be next, will be next

  And on the street tonight 

  An old man plays 

  With newspaper 

  Cuttings of his glory days

  Will be next, will be next, will be next
