Ripcord

Soul destroyed

With clever toys

For little boys

It's inevitable, inevitable

It's a soul destroyed

You're free until you drop

You're free till you've had enough

And you don't understand

You've no ripcord, no ripcord

No ripcord, no ripcord

Aeroplane do I mean what I mean?

It's inevitable, inevitable

Oh, aeroplane

A thousand miles an hour

On politics and power that you don't understand

And no ripcord, no ripcord

No ripcord, no ripcord

The answer to your prayer

We'll drop you anywhere

With no ripcord, no ripcord

No ripcord, no ripcord
