Humankind (live)

I've read that it's official

That our love has solidified in ritual

And all our sweet nothings melted into vitriol

We eat it up, we chew it round, we spit it out

But I doubt that we've got a lot to shout about

The time has come, the bell has rung and now it's seconds out

I'm just a man but I try to be a human

I'm just a man but I try to be a human

Now the inmates are in charge of the asylum

All this silence, it will only lead to violence

Now the inmates are in charge of the asylum

Watch outI've seen the big oaks falling

And I've heard the dying voice of England calling

No vote is worth a damn, we're stuck here in our heartland stalling

Her nerve is twice as cold as the icebox in my fridge

I'd write you letters but she took away my privilege

I'll be there at the auction just to see how high she'll bid

I'm just a man but I try to be human

I'm just a man but I try to be human

Now the inmates are in charge of the asylum

All this silence, well it might only lead to violence

Now the inmates are in charge of the asylum

Watch outThey clipped my ticket but they took away the cinema

Well now they just show films with things the way they think they are

Some things may be black and white but not when there's a color bar

You tell me not to throw it's only someone's policy

I think you oughta know I'm sick of ideology yeah

I'm gonna hide right now, will you clear up this mess for me?

I'm just a man but I try to be human

I'm just a man but I try to be human

Now the inmates are in charge of the asylum

All this silence, well it could only lead to violence

Now the inmates are in charge of the asylum

Watch out

They're taking my humanity and they're trying to squeeze it out of me

They're taking my humanity and they're trying to squeeze it out of me

I'm just a man but I try to be a humane man
