Hear them falling
In the darkness
This is the age of dominoes
Making money from money
This strange alchemy
Cannot last forever
Lean bank against bank
In an endless line
Farmers, workers, at one end
How long can they hold it up?
Strongman next to strongman
In the desert sands
Cannot stand forever
Prop dictator after dictator up
In an endless line
Students, artists, prisoners
How long will they be held down?
Hear them falling
In the darkness
This is the age of dominoes
When they go we will not miss them
For when they fall they take us with them
