Pulled outta Basingstoke
I was feeling ′bout half past broke
Went past an old man
That's when he turned and spoke
He said "ain′t it crazy how there always seems to be a war?
Especially when it's not what the people want or asked for"

And in the White House and Downing Street there are psychopaths
If you look into their eyes, it's empathy they lack
On top of this you know we′ve still got kings and queens
It′s enough to make you wanna scream and sing

I am a man
Driven mad by the state of the planet
And I feel and it's real
I wanna see those criminals vanish
Yeah
I wanna see those criminals vanish
Yeah

Something′s about to give
I can feel it under my skin
I'm not afraid to live
That′s why I try and sing
Knowing by to my table my family has just begun
My own high sanctuary, my time in the sun

And in the White House and Downing Street are psychopaths
If you look into their eyes, it's empathy they lack
And on top of this we′ve still got queens and kings
It's enough to make you wanna scream and sing

I am a man
Driven mad by the state of the planet
And I feel it's real
I wanna see these criminals vanish
I am a man
Driven mad by the state of the planet
And I feel it′s real
I wanna see these criminals vanish
Yeah yeah
I wanna see those criminals vanish
Yeah
I′m a man
I'm a man
I′m a man
I'm a man
