Lyrics:Van Morrison Music:Van Morrison | |
Did you ever hear about the great deception | |
Well the plastic revolutionaries take the money and run | |
Have you ever been down to love city | |
Where they rip you off with a smile | |
And it don't take a gun | |
Don't it hurt so bad in love city | |
Don't it make you not want to bother at all | |
And don't they look so self righteous | |
When they pin you up against the wall | |
Did you ever, ever see the people | |
With the tear drops in their eyes | |
I just can't stand it, stand it no how | |
Living in this world of lies | |
Did you ever hear about the rock and roll singers | |
Got three or four Cadillacs | |
Saying power to the people, dance to the music | |
Wants you to pat him on the back | |
Have you ever heard about the great Rembrandt | |
Have you ever heard about how he could paint | |
And he didn't have enough money for his brushes | |
And they thought it was rather quaint | |
But you know it's no use repeating | |
And you know it's no use to think about it | |
'Cause when you stop to think about it | |
You don't need it | |
Have you ever heard about the great Hollywood motion picture actor | |
Who knew more than they did | |
And the newspapers didn't cover the story | |
Just decided to keep it hid. | |
Somebody started saying it was an inside job | |
Whatever happened to him? | |
Last time they saw him down on the Bow'ry | |
With his lip hanging off an old rusty bottle of gin | |
Have you ever heard about the so-called hippies | |
Down on the far side of the tracks | |
They take the eyeballs straight out of your head | |
Say son, kid, do you want your eyeballs back | |
Did you ever see the people | |
With the tear drops in their eyes | |
Just can't stand it no how | |
Living in this world of lies |
