Verse Well you say, you won You'll work until the work is done I don't see you lift a hand To help out one of your fellow men Pre-Chorus 1 And they're using us up again But I won't be no puppet on a string Chorus Your wheels on fire Your one desire Is to roll and rule over everyone Come on then do it We see right through it You can roll and rule But we will overcome Bridge verse 2 You say, you won The talk until all the talk is done I see you move your mouth But I hear nothing of any weight come out Pre-Chorus 2 And you're calling on our defeat again You're talking, talking, but you're not really saying anything Chorus Your wheels on fire Your one desire Is to bend and twist every little thing we ve done Come on then do it We see right through it You can bend and twist But we ll be holding strong verse 2 You re building us up just to tear us down You think that nothing s gonna stop you now But I hear you re preaching from the lowest throne Bridge Chorus Your wheels on fire Your one desire Is to point and push your will on everyone Come on then do it It's so like you, yeah You can point and push But we will overcome Chorus Your wheels on fire Your one desire Is to tear and twist everybody's arm Come on let's try it But no one buys it You can tear and twist But we will overcome We will overcome Outro
