Lyrics to It'll Be A Long Time
It'll Be A Long Time Video:
All this time has whittled away,

Like so many days in one.

Back and forth the leaders sway,

Backing it up with gun.

Super powers flex their wings,

Hold the world by puppet strings.

Egos will feed,

While citizens bleed,

That's always the way it goes.



(Chorus)

When will the world listen to reason?

I've a feeling it'll be a long time.

When will the truth come into season?

I've a feeling it'll be long time.



All they want is what they can defend,

Before their time is up.

Make the mistakes again,

Heard it all before.

Superpowers flex their wings,

Hold the world on puppet strings.

Egos will feed,

While citizens bleed,

That's always the way it goes.



(Chorus)

When will the world listen to reason?

I've a feeling it'll be a long time.

When will the truth come into season?

I've a feeling it'll be long time.



Well if they tried,

Maybe they'd see,

It'd do a little good to let the world be free,

Handshake and a smile,

Gets you on through,

Then turn it all around with a suicide move.



(x2)

But you know it's not fooling anyone but me,

You gotta make yourself see what you want to see.



(Chorus)

When will the world listen to reason?

I've a feeling it'll be a long time.

When will the truth come into season?

I've a feeling it'll be long time.



I've a feeling it'll be a long time oh yeah...
