But radical actor there you are The radical statesman picking holes But radical actor there you are The radical stateman's checklist of faults

But radical actor there you are In radical terms this target's soft But radical actor there you are In radical terms it's power to your lost soul

But radical actor there you are The radical heights of alienating To be a cut above - or below.
