The Power
Through endless Asia, through the fields of Cathay
Or enslaved in a pebble-dash grave with a kid on the way
If you're far over Africa on the wings of youth
Or if you're down in some satellite town and there's nothing you can do
Just give me, give me, give me the power
I wanna make them believe
Give me, give me, give me the power
Although I'm just the common breed
You might live in a screen kiss
It's a glamorous dream
Or belong to a world that's gone
It's the English disease
But give me, give me the power
I wanna make them believe
Give, give me, give me the power
Although I'm just the common breed
Give me, give me, give me the power
I gonna make them believe
Give me, give me, give me the power
And I'll make them believe, oh
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Or enslaved in a pebble-dash grave with a kid on the way
If you're far over Africa on the wings of youth
Or if you're down in some satellite town and there's nothing you can do
Just give me, give me, give me the power
I wanna make them believe
Give me, give me, give me the power
Although I'm just the common breed
You might live in a screen kiss
It's a glamorous dream
Or belong to a world that's gone
It's the English disease
But give me, give me the power
I wanna make them believe
Give, give me, give me the power
Although I'm just the common breed
Give me, give me, give me the power
I gonna make them believe
Give me, give me, give me the power
And I'll make them believe, oh
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
