The Thermals
"Power Doesn't Run On Nothing"
We are just a child, we are just a child
We are wide awake but our legs are shaky
We're unaware, we're hyper
And we stare into space with grins on our faces
They'll give us what we're asking for
'Cause either way we're gonna take it
Our power doesn't run on nothing
We need the land you're standing on
So let's go
Move it
We are old as hell, we are old and tell
The children when to kill, when to sit still
Everyone doing what we say
'Till our dying day, 'till our breath is empty
They'll give us what we're asking for
'Cause either way we're gonna take it
Our power doesn't run on nothing
We need the land you're standing on
So let's go
Move it
Yeah, you need to let it go
Move it
Yeah, we're more equal
Now move your people
Off the planet
Cause goddammit, we need the fuel
So let the beat roll over
The beat roll over everyone in line, one in line
Let the beat roll over
The beat roll over everyone in line one at a time
They'll give us what we're asking for
'Cause God is with us and our God's the richest
Our power doesn't run on nothing, it runs on blood
And blood is easy to attain
When you have no shame
When you have no shame
So let the sun fade, let the sun fade
We'll still have light, we'll burn even brighter
We'll drain the well, tunnel to hell
And leave the Earth's surface for the worthless and dirt
Let the beat roll over
The beat roll over everyone in line, everyone in line
You think we'll cease, you see a reason?
You think it's fair, do you think it's fair, do you think we care?
