Midnight Oil - Is It Now? Lyrics
Theres a man who walks the lonely field at midnightHe wears a matching suit, steel tipped shoes and the diamondsAnd he holds the dying flame, the loaded dice and the answerHe stalks the open road that leads form here to thereYoud better look out, watch out, bewareTheres no safety hereCrouched by the fence, sweat dries cold on your every breathWheres the saviour that the critics dream about nowHes telling jokes to all the saviours in the wardBe warned when it comes to that, to the point of indecisionWhen you hesitate, hell make his choice for youYou better look out, bewareTheres no safety here (no, no, no safety)Crouched by the fence, sweat dried cold on your every breathHis eyes, they turn redYou think and recall what he saidHe puts a name to every faceTable talk and wall to wallWinners win the game, and the losers win the warResurrection, intersection, comic books and mass defectionVinyl floor and sliding doors, nothing moreLost the thread of conversationSentence fails and engine roarsNo recall, blindfold to the stairsIs it now?Is it now?(moginie/garrett)
