Power Lyrics by KMFDM

Retro

1996

[Person 1 dials phone and connects to person 2, Chinese voices on TV in background]
"Yo"
"Yeah"
"Ich bien"
"Hey"
"Mmhmm?"
"Hey"
"Hey"
"Uhhh"
"Uhhh"
"OK"
"Yeah?"
"OK, ummmm"
"Ummmm"
"OK?"
"OK"
"OK"
"OK"
"OK"
"OK"
"This is why I talk to you"

Under a stone
Skin and bone
The children of fear are not alone

Rivers of tears
Flesh and blood
An eye for an eye
That's all we've got

Time will be ending
Life's a crusade
For a consciousness rising
Out of desperate state

We got the power
(We got the power)
We got the power
(We got the power)
We got the power
(We got the power)
We got the power
(We got the power)

Power and truth
Desire and trust
Like the wind and the rain
Ashes and dust

Into light and the future
Education is work
Into violent peace
That will conquer the world

We got the power
(We got the power)
We got the power
(We got the power)
We got the power
(We got the power)
We got the power
(We got the power)

We got the power
Excessive force
Industrial soundtrack to the holy wars

We got the power
Excessive force
Industrial soundtrack to the holy wars

We got the power
Excessive force
Industrial soundtrack to the holy wars

Under a stone
Skin and bone
The children of fear are not alone

Rivers of tears
Flesh and blood
An eye for an eye
That's all we've got

We got the power
Excessive force
Industrial soundtrack to the holy wars

We got the power
Excessive force
Industrial soundtrack to the holy wars

Time will be ending
Life's a crusade
For a consciousness rising
Out of desperate state

We got the power
(We got the power)
We got the power
(We got the power)
We got the power
(We got the power)
We got the power
(We got the power)

We got the power
Excessive force
Industrial soundtrack to the holy wars

We got the power
Excessive force
Industrial soundtrack to the holy wars

We got the power
(We got the power)
We got the power
(We got the power)
We got the power
(We got the power)
Excessive force
Industrial soundtrack to the holy wars

We got the power
Excessive force
Industrial soundtrack to the holy wars

We got the power
Excessive force
Industrial soundtrack to the holy wars
