Manic Street Preachers

If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be NextManic Street PreachersThe future teaches you to be aloneThe present to be afraid and cold"So if I can shoot rabbits then I can shoot fascists."Bullets for your brain todayBut we'll forget it all againMonuments put from pen to paperTurns me into a gutless wonder.And if you tolerate this then your children will be nextAnd if you tolerate this then your children will be nextWill be next, Will be next, Will be next.Gravity keeps my head downOr is it maybe shameAt being so young and being so vain.Holes in your head todayBut I'm a pacifistI've walked La Ramblas but not with real intent.And if you tolerate this then your children will be nextAnd if you tolerate this then your children will be nextWill be next, Will be next, Will be next."And on the street tonight-An old man plays with newspaper cuttings of his glory days."And if you tolerate this then your children will be nextAnd if you tolerate this then your children will be nextWill be next, Will be next, Will be next.From: "Wizzy"
