mango groove - weeping lyrics
[verse 1]
i knew a man
who lived in fear
it was huge, it was angry, it was drawing near
behind his house
a secret place
was the shadow of the demon
he could never face
he built a wall
of steel and flame
and men with guns
to keep it tame
then, standing back
he made it plain
that the nightmare would
never ever rise again
but the fear and the fire and the guns remained
[chorus]
it doesn’t matter now
it’s over anyhow
he tells the world that it’s sleeping
but as the night came ’round
i heard its lonely sound
it wasn’t roaring, it was weeping
it wasn’t roaring, it was weeping
[verse 2]
and then one day
the neighbours came
they were curious to know about
the smoke and flame
they stood around
outside the wall
but of course there was
nothing to be heard at all
“my friends”, he said, “we’ve reached our goal
the threat is under firm control
as long as peace and order reign
i’ll be d-mned if i can see a reason to explain
why the fear, the fire and the guns remain”
[chorus]
it doesn’t matter now
it’s over anyhow
he tells the world that it’s sleeping
but as the night came ’round
i heard its lonely sound
it wasn’t roaring, it was weeping
it wasn’t roaring, it was weeping
[bridge]
stay out, stay out, stay out of here
stay out, stay out, stay out of here
stay out, stay out, stay out of here
stay out, stay out, stay out of here
[chorus]
it doesn’t matter now
it’s over anyhow
he tells the world that it’s sleeping
but as the night came ’round
i heard its lonely sound
it wasn’t roaring, it was weeping
it wasn’t roaring, it was weeping
it wasn’t roaring, it was weeping
