Left On Man

Chorus: Simplify, reduce, over-simplify Simplify, reduce, over-simplify Simplify, reduce, over-simplify Simplify, reduce, over-simplify What we call freedom in the North Means our freedom to use you And if you don't co-operate We'll cut off your supply lines But you'll be free to re-connect If you beg our forgiveness You say I over-simplify Well yes, so did Albert Einstein Chorus There simply is no middle ground Pentagon über alles There never was a middle ground That's the point I was making There's no such place as middle ground Left or Right of the equator Chorus What we call freedom in the North Means our freedom to use you And if you don't co-operate We'll cut off your supply lines But you'll be free to re-connect If you beg our forgiveness You say I over-simplify Well yes, so did Albert Einstein
