a day is gonna come, the levy is gonna break
the doing will be done, the fixed is gonna shake
a day is gonna come, the sky will be the floor
the moon will be the sun, the laugh will be a mourn
a day is gonna come, the bandits will be fled
the none will be the sum, the living will be dead
a day is gonna come, the giant is gonna shrink
the many will be one, the stone is gonna sink
a day is gonna come, the limousines are blocked
the hungry and hung-up, desert is the dock
a day is gonna come, from the bottom to the up
there's treasure in our tongues, "the banks are all bankrupt!"
a day is gonna come, caught up in the clutch
hooked highway straighten up, the ripple roads of rust,
a day is gonna come, the old will then be young
hindrances flung up, "the banks are all bankrupt!"
You're a trophy for the whole human race
i'm a citizen with an immigrant face
for the curve we'll hang together
to get the hell out of this winter
we'll flee and without a trace
we will flee and without a trace
one day with our ears we will play
we will flee and without a trace
on the run towards another place
