Lyrics
The Power
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Through endless Asia
through the fields of Cathay
Or enslaved in pebble dash grave
with a kid on the way
If you're far over Africa
on the wings of youth
Or if you're down in some satellite town
and there's nothing you can do
Just give me give me
give me the power
And I'll make them bleed
Give me give me the power
(Although I'm just the common breed)
You might live in a screen kiss
it's a glamorous dream
Or belong to a world that's gone,
it's the English disease
But give me give me
give me the power
And I'll make them bleed
Give me give me give me the power
(Although I'm just the common breed)
