Killing Joke - Stay One Jump Ahead lyrics
[Killing Joke - Stay One Jump Ahead lyrics]
Province, state and country
The great divide has come
Ten percent shall prosper
To them the kingdom come
I can see trends behind trends i can see
Jack has bought a business
Pete inherit's home
Jill has got a trust fund
They've all been buying fun
I can see trends behind trends i can see
Stay one jump ahead
Jack's alright he's a predator
He'll give you three good reasons
That'll change your mind
You can't afford the BUPA health scheme
So when you get sick you're going to die
You can't afford to buy your own property
So when the rent goes up
Then you're on the street
You can't afford the bills and pills you need
You've got to get them cause
They're going to get you
Anger is your friend now
Resentment is the key
Patience as a virtue so be accessary
Or you can always be a victim
A victim of the circumstance if you like?
Stay one jump ahead
Province, state and county
The great divide has come
Ten percent shall prosper
To them the kingdom come
I can see trends behind trends i can see
Jack has bought a business
Pete inherit's home
Jill has got a trust fund
They've all been buying fun
I can see trends behind trends i can see
Stay one jump ahead
The Whitehouse played the game their own way
Their foreign policies gave me the shit's
I didn't understand until I read
St john's acoount of Apocalypse
American heroes Colonel Oliver North
Everybody says he was just doing his job
Arms for the hostages, it's plain to see
Why the very next day they bombed Tripoli
Terrorists were everywhere
Blowing Greenpeace ships right in the air
Wall Street crashed and the hurricane
Tore the trees from their roots
Derailed the trains
London twon ground to a halt
And everybody said it wasn't our fault
Waether goes crazy nature goes crazy
Man goes crazy nature goes crazy
Stay one jump ahead
Incredible induction of such awesome energy
The sound satisfaction signify
Geordie celebrity
Taking the guitar playing like he's a killer
He doesn't really matter cos you
Know he's gonna bill up
All the sound resounding into your brain
You know so you can never run
Away hes pumping like a train
Chiffity Chaff i'm goind down the track
I can do as I feel cos
He never takes the slack
The rhythm that's riding is
Taking you much further
The posse in the house yo they say I'm Kruger
Murder that they give you will
Tak you on down
Because he is the boss of the guitar sound
Anger is your friend now
Resentment is the key
Patience as a virtue so be accessary
Or you can always be a victim
A victim of the circumstance if you like?
Stay one jump ahead
The great divide has come
Ten percent shall prosper
To them the kingdom come
I can see trends behind trends i can see
Jack has bought a business
Pete inherit's home
Jill has got a trust fund
They've all been buying fun
I can see trends behind trends i can see
