Mystery Jets – Screwdriver lyrics
[Verse 1]
An old mighty thunderstorm
Hooligans in uniform
Demonstrating up the drag
Desecrating the national flag
Hate masquerading as pride
Say you got God on your side
But you ain't why Jesus died
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I never dreamed that it would come to this
But an enemy is only what you fight them with
[Chorus 1]
Fight them with love
Fight them with love
Cause when the power of love overcomes
The love of power
Then the world will be ours
Then the world will be ours
[Verse 2]
In the eye of a hurricane
Getting high on the fumes of your fame
Veins running on puritan blood
Act like you're jury and judge
Denigrating the human race
Preaching intolerant hatred
Say you got God on your side
But your just why Jesus cried
Jesus cried
Why Jesus cried
Why Jesus cried
[Bridge]
Jesus cried
I never dreamed that it would come to this
But an enemy is only what you fight them with
I never thought that it would come to this
But an enemy is only what you fight them with
Fight them with love
Overcome
The love of power
Then the world will be ours
[?]
They are liars
They go low
We go higher
They go low
We go higher
They go low
Fight them with love
Fight them with love, yeah
[Chorus]
Cause when the power of love overcomes
The love of power
Then the world will be ours
Then the world will be ours
Will be ours
Will be ours
An old mighty thunderstorm
Hooligans in uniform
Demonstrating up the drag
Desecrating the national flag
Hate masquerading as pride
Say you got God on your side
But you ain't why Jesus died
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I never dreamed that it would come to this
But an enemy is only what you fight them with
[Chorus 1]
Fight them with love
Fight them with love
Cause when the power of love overcomes
The love of power
Then the world will be ours
Then the world will be ours
[Verse 2]
In the eye of a hurricane
Getting high on the fumes of your fame
Veins running on puritan blood
Act like you're jury and judge
Denigrating the human race
Preaching intolerant hatred
Say you got God on your side
But your just why Jesus cried
Jesus cried
Why Jesus cried
Why Jesus cried
[Bridge]
Jesus cried
I never dreamed that it would come to this
But an enemy is only what you fight them with
I never thought that it would come to this
But an enemy is only what you fight them with
Fight them with love
Overcome
The love of power
Then the world will be ours
[?]
They are liars
They go low
We go higher
They go low
We go higher
They go low
Fight them with love
Fight them with love, yeah
[Chorus]
Cause when the power of love overcomes
The love of power
Then the world will be ours
Then the world will be ours
Will be ours
Will be ours
