Supertramp - Fool's Overture lyrics

Your rating:

(Long Intro).

Winston Churchill:
We shall go on till the end, we shall fight on the seas and oceans
We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be
We shall never surrender.

History recalls, how great the fall can be
While everybody's sleeping
The boat's put out to sea
Born on the wings of time
It seems the answers were so easy to find.

Too late the prophets cry
The island's sinking, let's take to the sky
Called the man a fool
Stripped him off his pride
Everyone was laughing
Up untill the day he died.

Ooh, though the wound went deep
Still he's calling us out of our sleep
My friends, we're not alone
He waits in silence to lead us all home.

So you tell me that you find it hard to grow
Well I know, I know, I know
And you tell me that you've many seeds to sow
Well I know, I know, I know.

(A choir sings on the background):
And was the Holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills? 

Dreamer.

Can you hear what I'm saying
Can you see the parts that I'm playing
Holy Man, Rocker Man, Come on Queenie
Joker Man, Spider Man, Blue Eyed Meanie.

So you found your solution
What would be your last contribution?
Live it up and rip it up and why so lazy?
Give it out and dish it out and let's go crazy, yeah.
