lyrics

From the herds that have already gone
Rose a beast that today must be stopped
It seems alive though no body it has
And like a virus the globe it has spanned
These big machines are not to be lost
It's just a change to their use that's a must
Oh how we'll prosper and become all we can
When the law soon returns to our hands

Whatever's your pleasure
One day may be
The measure of treasure
No banks will see

The people know it will be a great feat
To live the dream of a democracy
No more war no more tributes to give
To those who rule just because they are rich
If there's a debt, its a debt to the earth
It is our heaven in this cold universe
We can do it with the systems we have
If we can all get on board with the plan
