Em F# E F#
Well we know what makes the flowers grow, but we, we don't know why
Em F# Em F#
And we all have the knowledge of DNA, but, we still die
A G F#
We perch so thin and fragile here, upon the land
A G F#
And the earth that moves beneath us, we don't, understand
Em F# Em F#
So we rush towards the judgement day when, she reclaims
Em F# E F#
A toast to the luddite martyrs then, who dies in vain
A G F#
Down in the labs they're working still, finishing off
A G F#
How do we tell the people in the white coats, enough is enough?
#Chorus
G Bm
Hey, hey I'll listen to you pray
D C#m B#m
As if some help will come
G Bm
Hey hey she will dance on our graves
D C#m Bm
When we are dead and gone
D C#m F#
When we are dead and gone
#Verse
Em F# Em F#
You and I we made no suicide pact, we didn't want to die
Em F# Em F#
But we watch the wall little darling, as the chemical trucks go by
A G F#
This desperate imitation now, of innocence
A G F#
Those last few days in Jonestown ain't got nothing on this
#Chorus
#Bridge
Now beneath the fitted carpets
Beyond the padded cell
Within these crimes of passion
The naked truth she dwells
And this fury's just a part
This thunder's just a part
Desire is just a part
The cracking ice, the splitting rock
#Chorus
#Verse
Em F# Em Fm
As children we learn about the world, we built that wall of sand
Em F# Em F#
Down on the beach we laboured hard, with our bare hands
A G F#
We worked until the sun went down, beneath the waves
A G F#
Then the tide came rolling crashing in, washed the wall away
A G F#
How do we tell the people in the white coats, enough is enough?
A G F#
How do we tell the people in the white coats, enough is enough is enough is enough is enough is eoungh?
