These are dangerous times we live in I heard a man once say If you're prone to flights of fancy Your dreams can fly away See the sights around you Of breakdown and decay Wrought by the greed for a better life For which you have to pay Will you dance before the storm and don't look back to where you've been The horizon's getting further As the sands of time run thin Will you dance before the storm As the machinery breaks down You watch the sky go black with anger, but no-one makes a sound From Glasgow town to London Down the motorways There's people standing in the rain Looking for any way To take them down to where they're bound It's part of another way The art of survival In a modern age SongtexteWill you dance before the storm and don't look back to where you've been The horizon's getting further As the sands of time run thin Will you dance before the storm As the machinery breaks down You watch the sky go black with anger, but no-one makes a sound From Albion Hill to the old chain pier You can hear a person say 'spare some change for all me pains The world has gone astray Down the road another flat got burnt Where a friend of mine once stayed So another squat in brighton Needs to hide another head And if your head spins around - go underground Away from the games they play There's people down there are trying to care And let each one have their say It's not revolution tactics It's not cause for anarchy Just a natural fight for a natural life Of which systems are afraid And if it all surrounds you Seems like there's no escape And there's people stood in front of you Saying do it in their way Turn your eyes towards the tides See how they never change The sands of time will break their mimd Just like riding on a wave Will you dance before the storm and don't look back to where you've been The horizon's getting further As the sands of time run thin Will you dance before the storm As the machinery breaks down You watch the sky go black with anger, but no-one makes a sound Aus Songtexte Mania
