thoughts and decisions - elegy (uk) lyrics lyrics

Loading...

everywhere you look today
you’re told that life, it’s free
in that case, make mine a double whisky
forget the cup of tea, yeah
there’s a dream that little boys have
before they go to sleep, hey
two nights come, rags to riches
but the craft that they’ll never believe

can you see the sunrise
from your bas+m+nt in the slums?
can you hear the nightingale
screaming in the sky?

do you think because you have
to pay to see the band
you can think of ideas
that are only secondhand?
and the poor people up near to the glass
and the air was clean
living on trouble with blacks and whites
cos they wouldn’t be seen

can you smell the roses
on the garbage tin next door?
make friends with a dirty old man
adding up his score
in the days when knights were bold
and all the people were free
you could live as long as you wanted
and still have time for tea
then the words came around
there’d be a tax on life
pay your dues as you must
love the kids through your wife

inner brain satellite, it makes me think
as if i might be held in a prison on the starline
i’m not going out as much as i touch
i’ve no way to know what i’m gonna find

well, my friends, the time has come
to decide what to do
it’s best to start another war
as i’m sure, not as you
oh when the dark h+ll has all stopped
hope gives light to doom, hey hey hey
people breathing, living will soon be free
oh christ, i spoke too soon

can you see the sunshine
from your bas+m+nt in the slums?
can you hear the nightingale
screaming in the sky?
