The power and the glory

Into the flash of lightning star-riders are hurled,
see them bumping and grinding bareback
on the wheels of the world,
you can see the dawn a'coming
or is that the flash of a spear,
ah, the day will come?
the dawn will break: the day breaks here.

We've got the power and the glory,
we're going to take it from here.

People say we've got the power,
the phrase I think is hearts and minds,
Never mind where we came from,
we've left our history books behind.
Not so much teachers as fighters,
and what we teach is how we fight,
and we're going to ring the changes,
we're going to ring it right.
