The sun is setting in on England's green and pleasant land
AT dusk I leave the town to tear the fences down And I ignore the voice of education sighing and crying in my head In the light of every dream, we're all coming home Lazy days and summer haze, my love of this land Memories of gentlemen and cricket fade away in the hot summer But still they carry out traditions of the past without a meaning In the light of every dream, we're all coming home Lazy days and summer haze, my love of this land New towns and concrete towerblocks, inhuman as they stand And did those feel in ancient times, or was it just our imaginations? In the light of every dream, we're all coming home Lazy days and summer haze, my love of this land |

In bleak and empty places we can watch from a greater distance
- the credulous delighting in every nation Don't lose your sense of humour, entertain the wildest thoughts We can walk for miles and miles without seeing anybody Some country rare and blessed away from this confusion No message for the masses only you and me The long winter is coming and instinct is telling me to fly towards the south I want to be in a place of beginnings, not endings! Forget all your belongings - leave the city, come unto the ends of the earth with me All our friends and relatives fell for neatly packaged policies And we shuddered at the headline, newsflash of the tensions in the Middle East You know as well as I do detente can't last forever Or overpopulation Me? I'd rather watch Peace of mind is my priority The long winter is coming and instinct is telling me to fly towards the south I want to be in a place of beginnings, not endings! Forget all your belongings - leave the city, come unto the ends of the earth with me |

I here
I hear the calling Carry across the landscape I hear it echo from every city to every village upon the earth From every rooftop to every mountain Calling the faithful to find themselves A fire burning like precious water, the fire that drives me on and on Through hell I shall reach heaven I shall not resist the changes before me View the madness with perspective (the clock is ticking but time means nothing) So I ascend to the blinding light Then plummet to the thickest darkness (and I always tell myself how splendid is the adventure!) I can no longer see good or evil But worship polarity So do not trust the beggars that expose their poverty of spirit Bleating "I will follow" I heed I heed the calling Follow yourselves as leaders Arise, arise, stand upright and take pride in who and what you are Great changes are coming and you will be asked to identify yourself So run like a lion with inexhaustible strength from world to world Let your work shine unto the ends of time yeah unto the ends of time. |

London, New York, Paris, Tokyo
All is one with the multi-nationals Total monopolies I can sink or swim Adrenalin is rushing through every action Whole nations crave for release from the suspense And I explode in you, my beautiful obsession I've been dreaming all your nightmares Holocausts, invented fantasies We build the tower, tower falls down All my dreams come true Sweet Jesus & Mohammed Disputes between the boys Whole nations crave for release from this suspense And I explode in you, my beautiful obsession |

I was a tourist in the Andes
On my way to Tiahuanaco Where the balance of a weeping god Faced east to the rising sun But I looked out the window And all I could see Was the face of a girl She was looking at me She was begging for food Then I knew I had found The weeping god In the face of a child As she gestures with her fingers Her little brother followed suit And all I did was take my camera So the image never fades away I no longer saw the great gate of the sun Nor the dawn of time when our race had begun Just black eyes like starving dogs looking at me A weeping god was all I'd ever see And as I sat in contemplation beyond all charity Losing the magic and meaning of living (the earth and the stars these things are mine) And when they've drained the earth of all resources We'll face the music still For you and I shall be striking memories In the thoughts of our children's children I had arrived at my destination At the gate of the rising sun We shall again regain in sunset that balance That we left undone I stared at the shacks and the shanty town mess I couldn't help but to think of the West The balance was lost and my reason went wild As the weeping god came alive in the child I began to weep And I remember the violation Determination came, Determination, Yeah! |

In the morning as I come around, rub my eyes and look outside
Watching, absorbing the underworld - reflections of a monstrous soul within Power stations and power games - this sickness called society I have identified the forces behind these changes that I see I put on my mask I walk down the path I go through the arch Outside the gate I have walked blkac lava fields of the northern hemisphere I have travelled the Andes range, across Pacific isles There is no escape in the waking world from that which is approaching us fast Salvation is drawn from our childhoos dreams In lands of beauty untainted by cynicism I put on my mask I walk down the path I go through the arch Outside the gate He invokes entities vast and mindless! We shall taste unimaginable joys a thousand times greater than these! And when the stars assume their rightful place, man liberates a mindless race Morals and laws shall be thrown aside - tap the millenial flame with pride Gaze with wonder, embrace your fate - A madman looks outside the gate! I put on my mask I walk down the path I go through the arch I close the gate |
