I know I said I favoured peaceful resolution 
But that was when we were the young idealists 

The Young Idealists 
Raging through the coffee shops and bars 
Make believe the world was really ours 
Still supposing we could make a difference 

Then we bought into the neocon economic dream 
And we were trading in futures we believed in 

The Young Idealists 
Careering through the markets to the Mall 
Venturing that we could have it all 
Still supposing we could make a difference 

And then the markets fall 
And the heavens open 
And there's no synergy at all 
The synergy is broken 

So maybe now I'd take that wholesale revolution 
We were talking about 
Maybe now I'd take a future we can breathe in 

The Young Idealists 
Raging through the forests and the streams 
Breaking into your laboratories 
Still supposing we could make a difference
 
I never dreamed I'd want a slogan on my people  moving 
But that was when we were the young idealists
