225 (Live|2005 Digital Remaster) - New Model Army[00:00:00]
She stares at the screen [00:00:47]
At the little words of green[00:00:49]
Tries to do remember what to do next[00:00:51]
There's a trace of frustration[00:00:55]
That crosses her face[00:00:57]
Searching for the key she should press[00:00:59]
And I would help her if I only knew how[00:01:04]
But these things are[00:01:07]
A mystery to me too[00:01:08]
And it seems that[00:01:12]
The Corporate eyes they are watching[00:01:13]
She fears for her job[00:01:16]
And the moments are passing[00:01:18]
I stare at her nametag[00:01:20]
And I think to myself[00:01:22]
Both you and I [00:01:24]
We never asked for any of this[00:01:26]
So let's take a walk up past[00:01:36]
The chemical works[00:01:39]
Where the sky turns green at night[00:01:40]
And we'll talk about getting away from here[00:01:45]
Some different kind of life[00:01:49]
But even in the freshest mountain air[00:01:56]
The jet fighters practise overhead[00:01:59]
And they're drilling these hills[00:02:05]
For uranium deposits[00:02:08]
And they'll bury the waste[00:02:08]
For our children to inherit[00:02:10]
And though this is all done[00:02:12]
For our own benefit [00:02:14]
I swear we never asked for any of this[00:02:16]
What's golden age of communication[00:02:29]
Means everyone talks at[00:02:33]
The same time[00:02:35]
And liberty just means[00:02:38]
The freedom to exploit[00:02:40]
Any weakness that you can find[00:02:42]
Turn off the TV just for a while[00:02:46]
Let us whisper to each other instead[00:02:50]
And we'll hope that[00:02:54]
The Corporate ears do not listen[00:02:57]
Lest we find ourselves committing[00:02:58]
Some kind of treason[00:03:01]
And filed in the tapes without rhyme [00:03:03]
Without reason[00:03:05]
While they tell us that[00:03:07]
It's all for our own protection [00:03:09]
I swear we never asked for any of this[00:03:11]
I swear we never asked for any of this[00:03:19]
I swear we never asked for any of this[00:03:27]
I swear[00:03:36]
