Well you say, you won
You'll work until the work is done
I don't see you lift a hand
To help out one of your fellow man

And they're using us up again
But I won't be no puppet on a string

Your wheels on fire
Your one desire
Is to roll and rule over everyone
Come on let them do it
We see right through it
You can roll and rule
But we will overcome

You say, you won
The talk until all the talk is done
I see you move your mouth
But I hear nothing of any weight come out

And you're calling
On out the [?] again
You're talking, talking
But you're not really saying anything

Your wheels on fire
Your one desire
Is to bend and twist every little thing we've done
Go on and do it
We see right through it
You can bend and twist
And we'll be holding strong

You're building us up just to tear us down
You think that nothing's gonna stop you now
But I hear you're preaching from a nervous throne

Your wheels on fire
Your one desire
Is to point and push your will on everyone
Go on and do it
It's so like you
You can point and push
But we will overcome

Your wheels on fire
Your one desire
Is to tear and twist[?]
Go on and try it
No-one buys it
You can turn and twist
But we will overcome

We will overcome
