"Flash's Dream (The Final Elbow)" lyrics

[Scene: Mr. Black's army is closing in on Flash & The Spivs. After a long day's campaigning Flash, having overindulged the alcohol, has fallen asleep in his den.]

[Voice:] Cooee. Cooee. Flash. Flash

[Flash:] Who is this?

[Voice:] Wake up, Flash. Can you hear me, Flash?

[Flash:] Who is this? Who dares to wake me from my slumber?

[Voice:] Need I announce myself? Am I such a stranger to you?

[Flash:] Say your name. Speak!

[Voice:] I am your soul

[Flash:] My soul?

[Voice:] I have come to show you who you are

[Flash:] Show me who I am? I know who I am you upstart! How dare you intrude

[Voice:]
You lied and schemed and took over a simple village and turned it into a vulgar playground for your own money-making ends. Before you came people lived simple lives this was a happy place. Then you ploughed up the fields sold off the land and lined your own pockets with the profits

[Flash:] Lies! Lies! I did it to help the nation

[Voice:] You did it for your own preservation!

[Flash:] No! No!

[Voice:] Prepare yourself, Flash. There are many who suffered at your hands. They are craving for vengeance. Time is running out

[Flash:] Can this be the end? Can this be the swan song? The final elbow? I will not go. The people need me

[Voice:] Men like you will always come and go, but the people will go on forever. Take one final look at the past Flash. Enjoy it because you have no future

[Flash:] No! No! No! I can't stand it! No! No! I say!

[Trumpets herald the final confrontation between Flash and himself]
