Stiff Little Fingers - A River Flowing lyrics

Judgement man On the bench again Telling me what I've done wrong Judgement man Throws away the key Says he's putting me where I belong Government man On my TV screen Telling me what's right for me But the government man On the TV screen Doesn't see things that I can see He's calling : Trust me need me Put your faith in my lies Believe me Trust me need me We're moving on Cos we're past believing [Chorus:] We are a river flowing And you can't turn the river round We are a river flowing Why don't you jump in the river and drown Police man On the beat again Beating all that he can find Criminal man On the street again Steal instead of serving time Preacher man On the satellite Says he gonna save my heart All it takes is a telephone call And a current credit card He's crying: Hold me feel me Put your hands on my head and heal me Hold me fleece me We're moving on Cos we're past believing For too long now You've denied the truth Now you have to face your fear Cos for too long now You've had all the power But you can't last another year C'mon: Face me see me Realise that I'm what you made me Hear me join me Or stand aside as the tide come sweeping
