I'm not going to be an optimist no! I'm not going to be a pessimist no! When the leaders who lead us don't know where to go From their SUV's and their private plane They cannot see the common man Puppets on strings made to enjoy the show When the DJ plays their song All their promises are gone When a bottle of brandy makes them all forget their country We will all sing along Oh! They're dancing in the capital How can this be about a revolution? No! We're waiting in line for a solution? Oh! When death becomes an answer What are we living for With holes in their hearts and holes in their pockets Living in the skies Flying above it Searching for an answer that nobody knows When the DJ plays their song All their promises are gone When a bottle of brandy makes them all forget their country We will all sing along Oh! They're dancing in the capital
