Artist: manic street preachers
Song: if you tolerate this
The future teaches you to be alone
The present to be afraid and cold
So if I can shoot rabbits
Then I can shoot fascists
Bullets for your brain today
But we'll forget it all again
Monuments put from pen to paper
Turns me into a gutless wonder
Refrain:
And if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next
Yes if you tolerate this
Then your children will be next, will be next
Gravity keeps my head down or
Is it maybe shame
At being so young and being so vain
Holes in your head today but
I'm a pacifist
I've walked La Ramblas but not
With real intent
And on the street tonight an old man plays
with newspaper cuttings of his glory days
Refrain
