Where's the music goin' |
|
Somebody said... |
|
It's gone |
|
Somebody said... |
|
With this bad wind a blowin' |
|
Will the music keep a rolling on |
|
I had to ask myself |
|
WHy it's makin' me |
|
A minstrel man from cradle to grave |
|
Should there be somewhere else |
|
It could be takin' me |
|
As it rolls on over like a wave |
|
Somebody said... |
|
We got to find the words |
|
Got to, got to be an answer there |
|
Somebody said that... |
|
You never get heard ' |
|
Cause nobody really cares |
|
Do your feet just dance |
|
Where the waves begin |
|
Stop thinkin' as you're sinkin' below |
|
Or do you take this chance to sail on the wind |
|
When so many in the water chose to row |
|
Some may curse the crippled |
|
Some try to hide the hurt |
|
Some they hate the hungry |
|
But who's dying down there in the dirt |
|
Somebody said... |
|
Has the man enlightened us |
|
Somebody said... |
|
Who knows |
|
And then the little boys said... |
|
Well I may be frightened |
|
But the Emperor has got no clothes |
|
As the passion dies |
|
But the beat goes on |
|
The conductor got us singing his song |
|
He's been feedin' these lies |
|
That we've been feasting upon |
|
But now we've been at the banquet too long |
|
Somebody said... |
|
Where are the dreamers |
|
Somebody said... |
|
Dead Somebody said... |
|
Here comes the holy rollers |
|
Tryin' to sell us all the screamers instead |
|
Since we were once deceived |
|
When we received the call |
|
Now the cynics are the prophets of the day |
|
And now the weak ones grieve |
|
As the strong ones fall |
|
And the rest of us have nothing to say |
|
Some suffer in silent sadness |
|
Some come to worship pain |
|
Some just welcome madness |
|
But you can't come in from the rain |
|
