Sting - We Work The Back Seam songtekst

Je score:

Your economic theory said it would
 It's hard for us to understand
 We can't give up our jobs the way we should
 Our blood has stained the coal
 We tunneled deep inside the nation's soul
 We matter more than pounds and pence
 Your economic theory makes no sense

 One day in a nuclear age
 They may understand our rage
 They build machines that they can't control
 And bury the waste in a great big hole
 Power was to become cheap and clean
 Grimy faces were never seen
 But deadly for twelve thousand years is carbon fourteen

 We work the black seam together
 We work the black seam together

 The seam lies underground
 Three million years of pressure packed it down
 We walk through ancient forest lands
 And light a thousand cities with our hands
 Your dark satanic mills
 Have made redundant all our mining skills
 You can't exchange a six inch band
 For all the poisoned streams in Cumberland

 One day in a nuclear age
 They may understand our rage
 They build machines that they can't control
 And bury the waste in a great big hole
 Power was to become cheap and clean
 Grimy faces were never seen
 But deadly for twelve thousand years is carbon fourteen

 We work the black seam together
 We work the black seam together

 Our conscious lives run deep
 You cling onto your mountain while we sleep
 This way of life is part of me
 There is no price so only let me be
 And should the children weep
 The turning world will sing their souls to sleep
 When you have sunk without a trace
 The universe will suck me into place

 One day in a nuclear age
 They may understand our rage
 They build machines that they can't control
 And bury the waste in a great big hole
 Power was to become cheap and clean
 Grimy faces were never seen
 But deadly for twelve thousand years is carbon fourteen

 We work the black seam together
 We work the black seam together
