(The powers that be)
(The powers that be)
(The powers that be)
(The powers that be)
(The powers that be)
(The powers that be)
(The powers that be)
(The powers that be)
They like a tough game, no rules
Some you win, some you lose
Competition, good for you
To die, to be free
They're the powers that be
They like a bombproof Cadillac
Air-conditioned, gold taps
Back seat gun rack
Platinum hubcaps
They pick horses for courses
They're the market forces
(Nice car, Jack)
They like order, make-up
Limelight power
Game shows, rodeos
Star Wars, TV
They're the powers that be
If you see them come
You better run (you better run)
Run
You better run on home
You better run (you better run)
Run
You better run on home (home)
Sisters of Mercy better join with your brothers (brothers)
Put a stop to the soap opera right now (yeah)
They say the toothless get ruthless
You better run on home (home, home)
You better run (you better run)
Run
You better run on home
(The powers that be)
(The powers that be)
(The powers that be)
(The powers that be)
They like treats, tricks (the powers that be)
Carrots and sticks (the powers that be, the powers that be)
They like fear and loathing (the powers that be, the powers that be)
They like sheep's clothing (the powers that be, the powers that be)
And blacked-out vans (the powers that be)
(Blacked-out vans, contingency plans)
(They like death or glory)
(They love a good story)
They love a good story
Sisters of Mercy better join with your brothers (Sisters of Mercy)
Put a stop to the soap opera state
They say the toothless get ruthless
Run home before it's too late
You better run
Run
You better run on home
You better run
Run
You better run on home
You better run (you better run)
Run
You better run on home
You better run (you better run)
Run
You better run on home
You better run (you better run)
Run
You better run on home
You better run (you better run)
Run
Yeah, you better run on home
You better run
"Goodnight, Jim"
"Goodnight, Billy"
"Woof, woof, woof!"
"Bull heads, three red snapper, one pink snapper
And your Pacific coastal trench hose monster fish"
"Ooh! At Sky David's juke joint of joy reports
40 under the console giggle stick Lingcod
23 purple perches, four sledgehammer head sharks
And what a surprise
84 crabs, and no red snappers"
"Hey, and that'll do for the triumphant return
Of the fish report with a beat"
"We think of it as Main Street
But to the rest of the country, it's Sunset Strip
You're listening to KAOS in Los Angeles"
(The powers that be)
