lyrics

"Fire At The Reichstag"
Did I hear someone say
"Fire At The Reichstag"
Thought I heard someone shout

Well we know it's Freedom's Ghost
'Cos you're the one... the one who killed Freedom

How long's it gonna take?

We've postponed thinking about it
The Event Horizon has come and gone
No more last warnings in our lifetime
'Cos in our lifetime
In our lifetime
... it will end

How long's it gonna take?
A single quality
One, two, skip a few
Three, four, a knock on the door

Sleepwalkin' into a Police State
Take this down, I think I'm gonna dictate
Fukuyama ain't been heard for a while
So turn round, and bend down
And SMILE, here comes your fifteen minutes
Now on show - 24-7
"1984" wasn't meant to be instructional
But no-one reads so they use it as a manual
'Cos if we don't look, don't press, don't contest
If we don't ask, don't touch, we don't test
Pretty soon you'll be looking at an empty stage
When they take our speech - an oversight - to complement (the) theft

"Just another angry young man"
I got "taught"; sure, I know who I am
"Just another angry black man"
I got "taught"; so now I know who I am

A cliché; Paranoid and sunburnt and working my repression out
Perfect as a scapegoat when th'economy ain't working out
Driven to the edge by a war that can never end
Given up my crutches
For a state gone fascist
Well, history will repeat, and the victors will delete
Verses that contradict, Liberty strapped in the back seat
Forget the trial; I admit treason
For Freedom's Ghost and in the spirit of Reason

One, two, skip a few
One, two, skip a few
One, two, skip a few
I think I skipped a few

One, two, skip a few
