[Verse 1]
LAm
There's a sentry in a uniform
MI
To watch the VIPs along the wall
LAm
Strategical discussions taking place
MI
Behind the steel plated wall
REm
The agents issue the statements
SIb
To the waiting press who circulate the words
LAm
Justification propaganda
MI
Western foreign policy across the world
Chorus
REm
In the name of the people
DO
All of this done
REm
In the name of the people
DO
All of this done
[Verse 2]
They read their books and study hard
Cigarettes lit in the claustrophobic gloom
West of the University Road
The world outside is ghost-like in the room
Frustrated and impatient and
Intelligence sharp and twisted like a child
Death is an aphrodiasiac now
The fuses on the table slowly wired
Chorus
In the name of the people...
[Special]
LAm SIb REm (Bb)
Hold me tight, hold me fast
LAm SIb
Standing here on the wrong side
REm (Bb)
Of this bullet-proof glass
LAm SI MIm
There are no questions left for us to ask
[Verse 3]
It's soldiers' night at the discotheque
Pick up a girl and drink to home afar
Spending money like water
On the watered drinks available at the bar
The ones who never were given much
Never asked much of anything in recall
But there's a black bag in the corner
And it doesn't belong to anyone here at all
Chorus
In the name of the people...
