Lyrics
Don't walk away now, lend me your ear
Expressing a plea for attention, asking not to be ignored
Let me make myself perfectly clear
Emphasizing a desire for clear communication and understanding
I got a point and this is the thrust
Stating a specific point or argument, highlighting the main idea
I see the enemy and it is us
Identifying the perceived enemy as within ourselves
Take a look baby deep inside
Encouraging introspection, looking deep within oneself
You can run but you cannot hide
Suggesting that avoiding problems is futile
Like a bubble that's about to burst
Using a metaphor of a bubble about to burst, indicating impending issues
You see the enemy and it is us
Reiterating that the enemy is within, emphasizing self-awareness
It is us
Repeating the assertion that the enemy is us, reinforcing the message
It is us
-It is us
-Who's that lurking among the trees
Possibly questioning hidden motives or threats among people
They've got bombs that spread disease
Highlighting dangers such as bombs causing widespread harm
Who's driving your aeroplane
Raising questions about those in control of technology or airplanes
They're up there causing hurricanes
Suggesting negative consequences of human actions like causing hurricanes
What's that lady hiding under her skirt
Possibly questioning the hidden intentions of individuals
Who are these people populating the earth
Expressing uncertainty about the nature of people on Earth
They're everywhere, who can you trust
Expressing a lack of trust in people; implying betrayal
We see the enemy and it is us
Reaffirming that the enemy is within ourselves
It is us
Repeating the assertion that the enemy is us, reinforcing the message
It is us
-It is us
-Happy days are here again
Introducing a contrasting tone with "Happy days are here again," possibly satirizing optimism
The skies above are clear again
-Happy days are here again
-Let's sing a song of cheer, sing a song of cheer
-'Cause happy days are here again
-'Cause happy days are here again
-'Cause happy days are here again
-'Cause happy days are here again
Repeating the ironic phrase "Happy days are here again," maintaining the satirical tone
