If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next by Manic Street Preachers

Album: This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours
The future teaches you to be alone the present to be afraid and cold
'so if i can shoot rabbits then i can shoot fascists'
Bullets for your brain today but we'll forget it all again
Monuments put from pen to paper turns me into a gutless wonder
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next, will be next will be next will be next
Gravity keeps my head down or is it maybe shame
At being so young and being so vain
Holes in your head today but i'm a pacifist
I've walked la ramblas but not with real intent
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next, will be next will be next will be next
'and on the streets tonight - an old man plays
With newspaper cuttings of his glory days'
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next
And if you tolerate this then your children will be next, will be next will be next will be next
