Am (Intro)
Am G
Watch the man of science working
Am G
See him twist and torture life
Am G
Just dissecting, never caring
F C G
Wields his scalpel like a knife
Am G
See the social planners planning
Am G
How to bend us to their mold
Am G
For our own good they'll direct us
F C G
All they're asking is control
Em C
Icarus your wings are melting
D Am Em
Never will you reach the sun
C
Though you feel your spirit soaring
D C G
Your proud wings shall come undone
D C Em
Your proud wings shall come undone

Am G
See the test-tube babies forming
Am G
All alike in even rows
Am G
Mutant robots in the making
F C G
Numbered tags upon their toes
Am G
For the dictocrats convenience
Am G
See them catalogue our lives
Am G
Hear computer giants ticking
F C G
Thought police control our lives
Em C
Icarus your wings are melting
D Am Em
Never will you reach the sun
Em Am
Though you feel your spirit soaring
D C G
Your proud wings shall come undone
D C Em
Your proud wings shall come undone
D C Em
Never will you reach the sun...
