Now they want to take away Everything you haven't got Coz it's the little things you have That means such a lot And the best years of your life Are the worst you can remember They say you've got it good Coz they know they've got it better
You can't fight the power When you ain't got the power to fight And the only rights that you need to know Are to know that youve got no rights
Now we're down on our knees Trying to find our feet Got to stop my heart from missing a repetitive beat It's wrong to steal they hate the competition They keep taking away our optimism
Don't let those feelings fool you You've still got a lot to give Hey hey hey We all struggle to exist But it's not where you live it's where you live
[Chorus] Speed up the breakdown We got you all sussed out Speed up the breakdown We got you all sussed out
Now it's a wonderful world of destiny New confrontations everyday We've got the best control that money can buy But we still seem to lose it anyway
You can't fight the power When you ain't got the power to fight And the only rights that you need to know Are to know that youve got no rights
[Chorus] Speed up the breakdown We got you all sussed out Speed up the breakdown We got you all sussed out
