Leonard Cohen - What Is Coming 2.16.03 lyrics
[Leonard Cohen - What Is Coming 2.16.03 lyrics]
What is coming ten million people
In the street cannot stop
What is coming the American Armed Forces
Cannot control the President
Of the United States and his counselors
Cannot conceive initiate
Command or direct
Everything you do
Or refrain from doing will bring us
To the same place the place we don't know
Your anger against the war
Your horror of death your calm strategies
Your bold plans to rearrange
The middle east to overthrow the dollar
To establish the 4th Reich
To live forever to silence the Jews
To order the cosmos to tidy up your life
To improve religion they count for nothing
You have no understanding
Of the consequences of what you do
Oh and one more thing
You aren't going to like what comes after
America
In the street cannot stop
What is coming the American Armed Forces
Cannot control the President
Of the United States and his counselors
Cannot conceive initiate
Command or direct
Everything you do
Or refrain from doing will bring us
To the same place the place we don't know
Your anger against the war
Your horror of death your calm strategies
Your bold plans to rearrange
The middle east to overthrow the dollar
To establish the 4th Reich
To live forever to silence the Jews
To order the cosmos to tidy up your life
To improve religion they count for nothing
You have no understanding
Of the consequences of what you do
Oh and one more thing
You aren't going to like what comes after
America
