Cold and walking on their heads

Washing hands in tears they shed

As a child is born to a brand new day

Wars are lost and won

As the city sleeps

The dirty deeds are laid

And every time that you think

You're right you're wrong

Now it won't be long

Till the voice of truth has had its say

And it won't be long

Till everything that's owed is all repaid

Losing faith in honesty

Bathing in our sympathy

Well, the child is torn to another way

He's speaking with a gun

Now the city weeps

The dirty deeds were played

Every time that he thinks

He's right he's wrong

Now it won't be long

Till the voice of truth has had its say

And it won't be long

Till everything that's owed is all repaid

Now it won't be long

Till karma comes around again

Around again, my friend

As the raven screams

"You'll never see the dawn"

You look around

Everything you had is gone

Now it won't be long

Till the voice of truth has had its say

And it won't be long

Till everything that's owed is all repaid

Now it won't be long

Till the wrath of truth has had its day

Yeah, it won't be long

Till karma comes around again, my friend

Round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round and round
