I used to think the world was flat

Rarely threw my hat into the crowd

In the glow of their donald duck light
Ab
And frighten myself with the thought
Bb
Of my little ones burning
Cm Bb Eb
But oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
Cm Bb Eb
The tide is turning

Satellite buzzing through the endless night

Who is the strongest? Who is the best?

Who holds the aces: the east or the west?

This is the crap our children are learning!

Cm Bb Eb
The tide is turning
Cm Bb Eb
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning

'cos on saturday night

And his silicon heart warmed

To the sight of a billion candles burning
