Woke up this morning
I was laid out flat on the dark side
With the moon and the room on the wrong side
I took a needle, sewed myself right back at the seams
I saw my universal gleam
I see the wonder of life and love for the one
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?
The sands are shifting and there's nowhere to land
It's on, it doesn't matter if all the best 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
[Spoken]
Don't be deceived when our revolution has been finally stamped out and they pat you paternally 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 pretence 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

dall'album BE, il primo della band dopo la dissoluzione degli Oasis
Scritta da Andrew Bell, Gem Archer & Liam Gallagher
La parte parlata alla fine della canzone è un campionamento di un discorso di Tariq Ali.
