Až se bude s odstupem hodnotit britská hudební scéna poslední dekády minulého století určitě v něm bude mít výrazné místo velšská kapela Manic Street Preachers. Jejich hudební snahy ale nepolevují ani v novém tisíciletí. Do nové dekády vkročili v...

Píseň: If You Tolerate This

Interpret:
Manic Street Preachers
Album:
Forever Delayed
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 


And if you tolerate this 
Then your children will be next 
And if you tolerate this 
Then your children will be next 
Will be next, 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 Rambas but 
Not with real intent 


And if you tolerate this 
Then your children will be next 
And if you tolerate this 
Then your children will be next 
Will be next, will be next, will be next 


And on the streets tonight 
An old man prays 
With newspaper cuttings 
Of his glory days 


And if you tolerate this 
Then your children will be next 
And if you tolerate this 
Then your children will be next 
Will be next, will be next, will be next
