Midnight Oil - Poets & Slaves Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Here comes the mechanical sun
  • working on the bones in the dry old creek bed
  • mist on the old river bend yellow box hangs like it's dead
  • the emerald silo is rusting from the inside.
  • You want to run like the wind you'll never come here again
  • you want a world you can save so c'mon you poets and slaves.
  • Circus olympia pulls into town
  • the dwarf and the fat man head out for beer
  • there is no lion that roars to one can stand on the horse
  • tomorrow is a no show the fortune teller cries.
  • You want to go down in flames you're gonna crash like the waves
  • you can't remember your name so come on you poets and slaves.
  • We got everything we need sugar and beef
  • we got some good ideas
  • we got the steering wheels and rolling stock too
  • clouds came down low on the corn
  • meat ants are gathering like storms
  • somewhere in the quiet wild darkness a crocodile cries.
  • You gotta you gotta you gotta
  • c'mon you poets and slaves.
  • You got to arrest the decay you're sinking down in the bay
  • you can't remember your name c'mon you poets and slaves.
  • You've got to count what you've made
  • you're gonna pass like the days
  • stop time and head for the stage.
  • And c'mon you poets and slaves
  • c'mon you poets and slaves.
