Manic Street Preachers - If you tolerate this...
The future teaches you to be alone
the present to be afraid and cold
'So if I can shoot rabbits
then I can shoot fascists'
Bullets for your brain today
but we'll forget it all again
Monuments put from pen to paper
turns me into a gutless wonder
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next,
will be next will be next will be next
Gravity keeps my head down or is it maybe shame
At being so young and being so vain Holes in your head today but I'm a pacifist
I've walked La Ramblas but not with real intent
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next,
will be next will be next will be next
'And on the streets tonight - an old man plays
With newspaper cuttings of his glory days'
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next,
will be next will be next will be next
the present to be afraid and cold
'So if I can shoot rabbits
then I can shoot fascists'
Bullets for your brain today
but we'll forget it all again
Monuments put from pen to paper
turns me into a gutless wonder
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next,
will be next will be next will be next
Gravity keeps my head down or is it maybe shame
At being so young and being so vain Holes in your head today but I'm a pacifist
I've walked La Ramblas but not with real intent
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next,
will be next will be next will be next
'And on the streets tonight - an old man plays
With newspaper cuttings of his glory days'
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next,
will be next will be next will be next
