From the withdrawn version of "Somewhere In England"
|
|
WAR MONGERS TERRORISE US ALL,
|
OUR LEADERS HEED US TO THEIR CALL.
|
STONEWALLIN, VOICES CALLING,
|
DROWNING IN THE TEARS OF THE WORLD.
|
|
BIG BUSINESS CALLING EV'RY TUNE,
|
POLLUTING HERE AND TO THE MOON.
|
ALL NATIONS, CONSERVATIONS,
|
DROWNING IN THE TEARS OF THE WORLD.
|
|
BUT YOUR LIVES WORTH SAVING,
|
WE SHOULD START BEHAVING
|
LIKE THE TRUTH'S BEEN TOLD
|
BY SAVIOURS THROUGH OUR TIME.
|
YOUR DOWNFALL, YOU'LL BRING IT ON YOURSELVES.
|
|
ALL WARNING FALL UPON DEAF EARS,
|
THEIR SCORN COMPOUNDING MY WORST FEARS.
|
NO WAY OUT, HOPELESS SOULS SHOUT,
|
DROWNING IN THE TEARS OF THE WORLD.
|
|
DROWNING IN THE TEARS OF THE WORLD,
|
TEARS OF THE WORLD.
|
|
WHERE'S YOUR LOVE BEEN SLEEPING?
|
HAS YOUR HEART BEEN WEEPING
|
OVER ALL UNRIGHTEOUS ACTION IN THE WORLD
|
WHERE BAD JAZZ SEEMS ALL THEY'RE LAYING DOWN?
|
|
NO USE IN TURNING YOUR BLIND EYE,
|
YOU FEEL THE HEAT AS YOU FRY.
|
TRY YOUR BEST, YOU'LL FIND NO REST,
|
DROWNING IN THE TEARS OF THE WORLD.
|
|
IT'S A SURE BET, EACH PAYS HIS DEBTS,
|
DROWNING IN THE TEARS OF THE WORLD.
|

TEARS OF THE WORLD
