Soul destroyed
 With clever toys
 For little boys
 It's inevitable,
 it's inevitable
 It's a soul destroyed
 You're free until you drop
 You're free until you've had enough
 And you don't understand
 You've 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
 The answer to your prayers
 We'll drop you anywnere
 With no ripcord.
