Lyrics:
I've got a wall inside my head
It's got to set the soul free
I got a will inside my head
The will of understanding
I'm a loading, loading my war machine
I'm contributing to the system
The break down scheme
I'm shuttin' down, I'm shuttin' down
Your need for green
I'm here to gun it down, now gun it down
I see pretty flowers at my feet Cool breeze, clean air, hospitality
Pretty please, pretty please, pretty please
Get the hell away from me
I'm a loading, loading my war machine
I'm contributing to the system
The break down scheme
I'm shuttin' down, I'm shuttin' down
Your need for green
I'm here to gun it down, now gun it down
Uh
I've got a wall inside my head
It's got to set itself free
I got a will inside my head
The will of understanding
I'm a loading, loading my war machine
I'm contributing to the system
The break down scheme
I'm a shuttin' down, I'm shuttin' down
Your need for green, baby
I'm here to gun it down, now gun it down
Uhh, uh
