The world is run by the global elite
Corporations run the show,
So we won't know who wins
They put us to sleep with video games
Celebrity shows and tabloid trash
While Si mon Cowell pulls in
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
What will the next pandemic be?
Drug companies, they've got a way
To make the people pay in pay
Create an illness, find a cure
That way profits are secure
Tiger, tiger, shining bright
From the darkness to the light
Looks like the world has gone insane
Oh, tiger, tiger, it's your year
Help us to dissolve the fear
With your claws, rip away the lies
Reveal the truth through tiger eyes
George Bush, he wanted a war with Iraq
The American people didn't
Rumsfeld and Cheney made it clear
September 11th, that was the day
Towers fell, they found a way
To get the power that they'd need
To make their plan for war
Bush and Blair chose to ignore
The millions who opposed the war
They spent millions, billions, trillions
Killing soldiers and civilians
The sun sets on a war -torn world
When will this violence ever cease?
Can't they hear our songs of
Wa terfalls of doubt and pain
Tsunamis and torrential rain
Earthquakes shake the ocean floor
Can the planet take much more?
But the winds of change are blowing
And I wonder which way we're go ing
We could look to the heavens above
Maybe find a little heavenly love
And if we found a little bit more
We could open up the door
Of the tiger, tiger, shining bright
From the darkness to the light
Looks like the world has gone insane
Oh tiger, tiger, it's your year
Help us to dissolve the fear
With your claws, rip away the lies
Reveal the truth through tiger eyes
