[Verse 1]
They don't make the future like they did in the past
Shedding scant light on the darkness of life
It's like you're making outrageous demands
And all my ancestor's were primitive man
Just look what you've got, admit you've lost the plot
It's something we can all understand
There's no turning back now, it's out of control
Take away history, you're left with a mystery
Life sentence, no chance of parole
No need to be nervous, we'll never get caught
It's my advice, that if you've paid the price
Then don't forget to take what you've bought

[Chorus 1]
See the sword of the people (A libertine angel)
The sword of the people (A libertine angel)
Be an angel

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]
There's no turning back now, it's out of control
Take away history, you're left with a mystery
Life sentence, no chance of parole
And all my ancestor's were primitive man
Just look what you've got, admit you've lost the plot
It's like something we can all understand
[Chorus 2]
See the sword of the people (A libertine angel)
The sword of the people (A libertine angel)
Be an angel
The sword of the people (A libertine angel)
The sword of the people (A libertine angel)
Be an angel, be an angel, be an angel
