[Verse 1]
Soul destroyed with clever toys for little boys
It's inevitable, inevitable, it's a soul destroyed

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You're free until you drop
You're free until you've had enough
But you don't understand

[Chorus]
You've no ripcord
No ripcord
No ripcord
No ripcord

[Verse 2]
Aeroplane, do I mean what I mean?
Oh, it's inevitable, inevitable, oh, aeroplane

[Pre-Chorus 2]
A thousand miles an hour
And politics in power
That you don't understand

[Chorus]
You've no ripcord
No ripcord
No ripcord
No ripcord
[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus 3]
The answer to your prayers
We'll drop you anywhere

[Chorus]
With no ripcord
No ripcord
No ripcord
N-n-no ripcord
Yeah
