Verse 1

N.C. A Asus2 D B7
The US forces give the nod
A N.C. A Asus2 D B7
It's a setback for your country
A N.C. A Asus2 D B7
Bombs and trenches all in rows
A N.C. A Asus2 D B7
Bombs and threats still ask for more
A N.C. A Asus2 D B7
Divided world the CIA
A N.C. A Asus2 D B7
Say who control the issue
A N.C. A Asus2 D B7
You leave us with no time to talk
A N.C. A Asus2 D B7
You can write your own assessment (ma ma ma ma ...)

Chorus

Sing me songs of no denying
Seems to me too many trying
Waiting for the next big thing 

Verse 2

N.C. A Asus2 D B7
Will you know it when you see it
A N.C. A Asus2 D B7
High risk children, dogs of war
Now market movements call the shots
Business deals in parking lots
Waiting for the meat of tomorrow

Chorus

Sing me songs of no denying
Seems to me too many trying
Waiting for the next big thing

Chant/Bridge

N.C.
Everyone too stoned to start emission
People too scared to go to prison
We're unable to make decisions
Politicians party line don't cross that floor
L. Ron Hubbard can't save your life
Superboy takes a plutonium wife
In the shadows of Ban the Bomb we live

Chorus

Sing me songs of no denying
Seems to me too many trying
Waiting for the next big thing 
Sing me songs of no denying
Seems to me too many trying
Waiting for the next big thing 
Sing me songs of no denying
Seems to me too many trying
Waiting for the next big thing 

Outro

We're
waiting ...  
We're
waiting ...  
We're
waiting ...
