They don't make the future
Like they did in the past
Shedding scant light
On the darkness of life
It's like your making outrageous demands
And all my ancestors
Were primitive man
Just look what you've got
Admit you've lost the plot
It's something we can all understand
There's no turning back now
It's out of control
Take away history
You're left with a mystery
Life sentence no chance of parole
No need to be nervous
We'll never get caught
It's my advice
That if you've paid the price
Then don't forget to take what you've bought
See the sword of the people
A libertine angel
The sword of the people
A libertine angel
Be an angel
There's no turning back now
It's out of control
Take away history
You're left with a mystery
Life sentence no chance of parole
And all my ancestors
Were primitive man
Just look what you've got
Admit you've lost the plot
It's like something we could all understand
See the sword of the people
A libertine angel
The sword of the people
A libertine angel
Be an angel
The sword of the people
A libertine angel
The sword of the people
A libertine angel
Be an angel
Be an angel
Be an angel
