Ripcord Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Soul destroyed with clever toys for little boys
It's inevitable, inevitable, it's a soul destroyed
[Chorus]
You're free until you drop
You're free until you've had enough
But you don't understand
You've no ripcord, no ripcord
No ripcord, no ripcord
[Verse 2]
Aeroplane, do I mean what I mean?
It's inevitable, inevitable, oh aeroplane
[Chorus]
A thousand miles an hour
And politics in power
That you don't understand
You've no ripcord, no ripcord
No ripcord, no ripcord
The answer to your prayers
We'll drop you anywhere
With no ripcord, no ripcord
No ripcord, no ripcord
