|
I have seen the streets and alleyways |
|
Of a million faceless towns |
|
The camera comes, the camera goes |
|
Filming our blues for the late night news |
|
We gather round |
|
Never searching for our innocence |
|
Our faith, our truth, our love |
|
They're only there when things go wrong |
|
Filming our blues for the late night news |
|
We gather round |
|
Show us peace and understanding |
|
Brother love for fellow man |
|
Cure us, we are sick from violence |
|
In your sideshow of life |
|
Impartiality is like |
|
A coin they have to spend |
|
The currency of the chosen few |
|
They place their bets |
|
Switch on your sets |
|
There's world disasters by the minute |
|
They tell us on the hour |
|
And when we think we've paid our dues |
|
They've filmed our blues for the late night news |
|
We gather round |
|
Show us peace and understanding |
|
Brother love for fellow man |
|
Cure us, we are sick from violence |
|
In your sideshow of life |
|
Sideshow of life |
|
When it's late at night and you're all alone |
|
With the one you love |
|
Turn on the late night news and cry |
|
Tears for all the lost and lonely people |
|
Innocents in prime time |
|
(Tragedies) of our life |
|
(Tragedies) of our life |
|
(Tragedies) of our life |
