our enemy is always on the brink
or so our leaders say when we don't fear
the worst thing we can do it seems is think
it's so much simpler just to nod and wink
ignoring all the smoke upon the air
our enemy is always on the brink
disaster is the message in the link
but we must meet it with our normal flair
the worst thing we can do it seems is think
we can't allow a single tiny chink
in our defences ever to appear
our enemy is always on the brink
instead we claim that we are in the pink
and ready to plunge in where they won't dare
the worst thing we can do it seems is think
we listen for the rustle and the clink
but no one seems to get up from the chair
our enemy is always on the brink
the worst thing we can do it seems is think
(C)2008, Ledgister Fragano
