1.
You may not have all you want or you need
all that you have has been due to my hand,
it can change, it can stay the same,
who can say, who can make their claim.

2.
The situation we are in at this time
neither a good one, nor is it so unblest
it can change, it can stay the same,
I can say, I can make my claim.
Hail ........ Hail ........ Hail.

3.
Unity's strength and all must be as one,
confidence in you hope will reflect in me
I think everyone not as my nation for
you are my people and there must be no change.
It can change, it can stay the same
I can say, I can make my claim.
Hail ........ Hail ........ Hail.
Hail to Power and to Glory's way.
Hail to Power and to Glory's way.
Hail to Power and to Glory's way.
Hail to Power and to Glory's way.
Day by day.

(repeat verses 1 & 3)

Hear, he'll do it all for you, you will see it,
wise and knowing what to do, what to be
and every word is ........

Lies, he only tells the truth, for he means it,
means, not anything he says, eyes unseen,
but everything is ........

So sincere, so sincere, so sincere, so sin.

Yes, that is to say no, understanding
wrong, he makes his promise right, with your hand
you'll never know why.

So sincere, so sincere, so sincere, so sincere.

So, sincere his thoughts so full, always empty
Good, or maybe things are bad, so sincere,
and every word is ........

So sincere, so ........

As the dust settles, see our dreams,
all coming true
it depends on you,
If our times, they are troubled times,
show us the way,
tell us what to do.

As our faith, maybe aimless blind,
hope our ideals and
our thoughts are yours
And believing the promises,
please make your claims
really so sincere.

Be our guide, our light and our way of life
and let the world see the way we lead our way.
Hopes, dreams, hopes dreaming that all our
sorrows gone.

In your hands, holding everyone's
future and fate
It is all in you,
Make us strong build our unity,
all men as one
it is all in you.

Be our guide, our light and our way of life
and let the world see the way we lead our way.
Hopes, dreams, dreaming that all our sorrows
gone forever.

As I hold the key to the back door
of the world I feel my
Hand touching bounds never had before.
I can view the power of my position and my
eyes can see more than anyone in any place,
I'll play the game and never ever lose.

I'm the king in fighting competition
and the other pieces
are there for my art and my tactics now.
All my games are won before they're played for
I have planned that no opposition can stage a fight
I'll play the game and never ever lose.

My thoughts never spoken only the
visions inside my head the truth never broken
within my silent words left unsaid.

I will steer the helm of all the nation
as the captain
take my rewards for all the good I'm doing now,
and no words that I'm the knave will alter my
philosophy for if any are heard, the games started
again I'll never ever lose.

Empty promise broken the path has
not been paved any way.
Cogs in cogs the machine
is being left where it lay.
Anger and the rising murmur breaks
the old circle, the wheel slowly turns around.

All words saying nothing
the air is sour with discontent.
No returns have been tasted
or are they ever sent.
Slowly burning is the fire, rising murmur breaks
the old circle, the wheel slowly turns around.

Cogs in cogs wheel turning
around,
The circle tuns around,
the changing voices calling
circle turns around,
the changing voices.
Slow burning is the fire rising murmur breaks
the old circle, the wheel slowly turns around.

Cogs in cogs in wheels
in circles slowly turn around.

Now the words and claims are seen as always
the way they'll always be, way they'll always be.
Truth is halfway true, the man is only a man
who fails to know,
the people shouting for him have turned now
telling him to go.

Powers that have place, esteemed positions
telling him to cry, telling him to cry,
Soon another song is sung,
in turn for existing blame and then
Apologise, conditions turn,
then it happens all again.

After all the things are said, no God's a man,
no God's a man,
and yet after all the things are said,
no God's a man, must happen all again.

After all the things are said, no God's a man,
no God's a man,
and yet after all the things are said,
no God's a man, and then again.

Sing your song, words that have to continue.
Tell a tale, seal the screen that is in you.
Make your peace, face to face that is after.
Reasons plain, tears of pain are not laughter.
Cast off the mould, buy all you've sold,
confidence lost, pay for the cost.

Choose your way, realising our mission,
figures lay, pulling strings for position.
Take your bows, hear the people are calling.
Play the game, Take the blame as you're falling.
Time to confess, clean up the mess,
stand in the white, step in the light.

Use the time, show the face that is sorry,
for the day, questions leading to worry.
Hide your mask, show the face that is sorry.
Time to question, answering all their worry.
Time to confess, clean up the mess,
cast off the mould, buy all you've sold.

And though the hard times,
are really due to me, it is still in me,
to wave all this unrest.
Things must stay,
there must be no change,
anyway, time to rearrange.

You must believe, that there's
been no betrayal all that I've done,
I've really done for you.
Things must stay,
there must be no change,
anyway, time to rearrange.

Hail, to power and to glory's way.
Hail, to power and to glory's way.

Must be a reason why plans
have turned around not only in me,
must also be in you.
Things must stay,
there must be no change,
anyway, time to rearrange.

hail ...
