Glen Hansard - Wheels On Fire

WHEELS ON FIRE 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 our defeat 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 everything you want. Go on and try it No one buys it, You can turn and twist But we will overcome We will overcome.
