Nocturnal Emissions - Power of Love (Aka Bring Power to Its Knees)

This time hey!
Hey you, what you doing down there
You in the wilds of Yorkshire
And you too in those valleys in Wales
And you too in the city of London
Well you can join in with us
And you can get your share
We're gonna bring power to its knees

Can't you hear the gunfire
As the citizens' militias settle those old scores
There's a flood of blood red and coal black banners
There's black clouds over Mayfair
Look to the skyline see a red dawn breaking
Keep those fires burning
And keep on singing those songs of love and revolution
We're gonna bring power to its knees
We're gonna bring power to its knees
Yes please!

Pawnbrokers and porn merchants
Profiteers and pushers
Cops, lawyers and journalists
Are lying dead all around
There's no one left to judge us
Their iron facade has rusted
Comrades! Tear through their illusions
We're gonna bring power to its knees
We're gonna bring power to its knees

Yes there's a new life searching through our veins
And through our brains
We're building a new tomorrow
Where there's no need to pay for anything
It's an end to daily nightmares
A day worth getting up for
Now those power cuts are coming
What's that tune your humming?
We're gonna bring power to its knees
We're gonna bring power to its knees

This class war will be the last war
We're lovers we're not losers
Now that we've let the fuses
Let's get it right
Why not tonight?
We're gonna bring power to its knees
We're gonna bring power to its knees
We're gonna bring power to its knees
We're gonna bring power to its knees
Right here and right now!
