1
Well, it's nighttime and the long cars
2
Are arriving at the door
3
The general is having another party
4
With a congressman or three
5
And some guys you never see outside the bank
6
There's a laughing clink of glasses
7
And a polished click of boots
8
Bitter talk of a country
9
With a weakness in its roots
10
And it's nighttime for the generals
11
The boys at the C.I.A
12
Power gone mad in the darkness
13
Thinking they're God on a good day
14
They giveth, they taketh
15
They like to take it away
16
"Well the fools don't know the difference
17
It's for their own good", they said
18
And they shot blind Lady Liberty
19
In the back of her head
20
And it's nighttime for the generals
21
The boys at the C.I.A
22
Power gone mad in the darkness
23
Thinking they're God on a good day
24
They giveth, they taketh
25
They like to take it away
26
They giveth, they taketh
27
They like, they take it away
28
Nighttime, nighttime, nighttime
29
Yeah, yeah, yeah
30
Nighttime, nighttime, nighttime
31
Nighttime, nighttime, nighttime
