Subhumans - Won't Ask You again lyrics
[Subhumans - Won't Ask You again lyrics]
And waiting for better just
Makes it feel worse we blow all the bubbles
Of hope and excitement
Try to calm down before they all burst
Too used to asking for things we deserve
Clean water in taps or somewhere to live
And failing to see that merely by asking
We're setting the limit's on what people give
I don't want your promises
I don't want your change
What’s the chance of being heard?
I won't ask you again
And asking for change is
Like asking for freedom
To choose who supplies all you
Need to be free
We take the position of moral consumers
Only to find that there's no guarantee
Action's a magnet for those who quit asking
But couldn't find anyone else they could tell
Action is not only making the protest
But making that overdue phone call as well
I don't want your promises
I don't want your change
What’s the chance of being heard?
I won't ask you again
I won’t ask you again!
The leaders we look at
Keep talking of changing
Like it was our fault things
Are all going wrong
Look a bit wider and get the whole picture
Then turn off the nerve that
Says "here you belong"
The people who change things are
Dead when it's normal
And lucky to stay out of jail when it's not
You can ask for the world to
Stop kicking your soul in
Or stand up and fight for
The fighting to stop
We don't need your promises
We don't need your change
If this is all you have to give
We won't ask you again
We won’t ask you again!
