Song | Imperial Zeppelin |
Artist | Peter Hammill |
Album | Fool's Mate |
作词 : Hammill, Smith | |
Pack your bags, we're leaving | |
earth, where hate is seething, | |
nothing's worth believing. | |
There's no time, make up your mind! | |
Imperial Zeppelin... | |
Quick, the engines are turning, | |
cabin lights are burning, | |
now there's no returning. | |
We'll have love a mile above... | |
Imperial Zeppelin, Imperial Zeppelin, Imperial Zeppelin! | |
We, the undersigned, being of sound mind, | |
hereby do declare: | |
'We henceforth pledge ourselves | |
unto the power of the Upper Air.' | |
Doesn't that sound simply super, | |
Zeppelin visions of the future? | |
Of course we all know very well | |
it wouldn't work, but what the hell – | |
every dice deserves a throw, | |
and when we get back home below | |
we can say we had a go! | |
Overboard we are throwing | |
seeds of love we are sowing, | |
hope to God they're growing. | |
Flying high across the sky: | |
Imperial Zeppelin! | |
We will try to do some good, | |
I don't know why we really should, | |
I only wish that we could! | |
Down below they'll see and know all about | |
Imperial Zeppelin, Imperial Zeppelin, Imperial Zeppelin! |
