albert hammond - somebodys child lyrics
[verse 1]
chaos parades the city streets
permanent carnival
mothers protect their families
inside apartment walls
electric heaven is looking down
there’s no one wearing a th+rny crown
[chorus]
in the new world, life is cheap
in the new world, lies are deep
in the new world, people forget
when the bullets are flying wild
everybody’s somebody’s child
everybody’s somebody’s child
[verse 2]
floodwaters climb the burning shore
the movie star wrings her hands
sitting aboard her private yacht
sailing away from land
at the poker table they serve champagne
there ain’t no shelter now from the rain
[chorus]
in the new world, life is cheap
in the new world, lies are deep
in the new world, people forget
when the bullets are flying wild
everybody’s somebody’s child
everybody’s somebody’s child
[bridge]
frozen faces in a photograph
sent at the speed of light
looking away, a lonely girl
turns out her bedroom light
she’s barricaded by bags of pills
it’s war that’s raging where peace signs k!ll
[outro]
in the new world, young girls cry
in the new world, young girls die
in the new world, we all forget
once the cause of the death is filed
everybody’s somebody’s child
everybody’s somebody’s child
everybody’s somebody’s child
