Browse > Lyrics > Ripcord

Soul destroyed,
With clever toys,
For little boys,
It's inevitable, inevitable,
It's a soul destroyed.
You're free until you drop,
You're free until you've had
enough,
And you don't understand-
You've no ripcord.

Aeroplane do I mean what
I mean?
It's inevitable, inevitable,
Oh aeroplane.
A thousand miles an hour,
On politics and power that
you don't understand-
And no ripcord.

The answers to your prayers,
We'll drop you anywheres...
With no ripcord.
