Lyrics: Stiff Little Fingers. Guitar And Drum.

Well, you get you entertainment
Through a corporate plan
Via 5 young athletes in a dancing band

Who are trained to act moronically
And smile on demand
'Cos it makes more money for the company man

Well, it might make all
The young girls hearts beat faster
But it don't amuse this cynical, old bastard

I believe
I believe in the power of guitar and drum
I believe in the hope held in a song
I believe that the music makes you strong
I believe in the power of guitar and drum

Well, theirs are songs about heartbreak
Theirs are songs about love
Theirs are songs about sex sung by an eight year old

And there's no one making statements
'Cos rebellion don't pay
And they'd rather that you bought this
Cos it's safer that way

Well, I can't believe that everyone is happy
With the newest teen sensation, carbon copy

I believe
I believe in the power of guitar and drum
I believe in the hope held in a song
I believe that the music makes you strong
I believe in the power of guitar and drum

You gotta eat McFood, lay with Barbie, drink Coca-Cola
Don't do anything that marks you as solo
Only use your brain for playing Nintendo
Consume everything with corporate logos

Eat McFood, lay with Barbie, drink Coca-Cola
Don't do anything that marks you as solo
Only use your brain for playing Nintendo
Consume everything with corporate logos

Go on ahead, make all the fat cats fatter
And for God's sake don't say anything that matters

I believe
I believe in the power of guitar and drum
I believe in the hope held in a song
I believe that the music makes you strong
I believe in the power of guitar and drum

I believe in the power of guitar and drum
I believe in the hope held in a song
I believe that the music makes you strong
I believe in the power of guitar and drum
