THE UNBLINKING EYE (Everything is
broken) - Roger Taylor
God would weep
If he existed
And he saw what men can do to men
He'd think that we were twisted
His unblinking eye
Would blink and then
He'd say "not in my name you don't
You stupid little men
With your arrogance and ignorance
You do it time and time again", and
Ahhh I must be gettin' old
There's a fire and a fury
Driven deep into my soul
It's the helplessness that comes
From being under your control
And everything is broken
We have a high street full of holes
The high street's full o' holes
The high street's full o' holes!
Five million cameras stare at us
And treat us like we're fools
Our privacy is meaningless
We're suffocated by ten thousand rules
This kingdom's not united
Just a complicated mess
Are we in
Europe
? Half in
Europe
? Not in
Europe
?
We're soulless, spineless, directionless
Ahhh I must be gettin' old
There's a fire and a fury
Driven deep into my soul
It's the helplessness that comes
From being under your control
And everything is broken
(stylophone)
And everything is broken
Why send our young men out to die
In wars that we don't understand
Why on earth should we be meddling
In places like Afghanistan
The price is much too high
In terms of money or our precious men
Your reasons are mysterious
And quite beyond our ken
Ahhh I must be gettin' old
There's a fire and a fury
Driven deep into my soul
It's the helplessness that comes
You've even sold our gold
And everything is broken
