Lyrics

Feel a shakedown in the situation
Won't you tap out my rhythm, tap out my rhythm
Tap out my rhythm
Go on and give it a little thought
Ah, just a little thought
I feel a break-down in communication
Won't you hop on my wavelength
Hop on my wavelength, hop on my wavelength
Go on and give it a little effort
Just a little effort
You've placed your brain inside its cage
You left gaps for ventilation
Let in draughts, now and then
You receive their information
You're happy to be brainwashed by their lies
Their meaningless morality
Presented to you under the guise of rationality
I feel a break-down in the situation
Won't you tap out my rhythm
Tap out my rhythm, tap out my rhythm
Tap out my rhythm
Go on, give it a little thought
Go on and give it a little thought
Just a little, a little, a little thought
Hun, huh, a little, a little, a little thought
A little thought
Give it a little thought
It's like a permanent shroud
The future, it's up to fate
You drift along on the same woolly cloud
Wake up when it's too late
Would've God made Thatcher who created Reagan?
Was that written in the stars?
After the blast, we'll take tea in heaven
Que sera, sera, sera
I feel a break-down in the situation
Won't you tap out my rhythm
Tap out my rhythm, tap out my rhythm
Tap out my rhythm
Go on, give it a little thought
Why don't you give it a little thought
A little, a little, a little thought
Go on and give it a little thought
A little, a little, a little thought
Go on and give it a little thought
Just a little, a little, a little thought
A little thought
Give it a little thought, yeah, yeah
A little thought
Why don't you give it (come), a little thought
Come on and give it a little thought
Why don't you give it a little thought (break down)
Come on and give it, a little thought (the situation)
I feel a little thought, a little thought (I feel a shakedown)
Communication (a little thought)
I feel a breakdown
