"Entertainment Value" lyrics
"Entertainment Value"
Look at the people
Look at them running uh-huh
Where are they going?
Where are they coming from?
It is a pity, that in the city
Even a pretty girl has to hide her face
Don't try to breathe in
With too much feeling uh-huh
Do and you're reeling
All over the place mm-hmm
Mothers who send their children out for fresh air
Wish they could wash lungs
Like they wash clothes and hair
Get on the bus, get on the train
Read your paper, read about pain
The entertainment value in a plane crash
Is something we should find out about
Look at the people
Look at ourselves mm-hmm
We are the people
Making the mess and the smells
What will our children think about what we leave them?
They're telling us now
And we won't believe them
Get on the bus, get on the train
Read your paper, read about pain
The entertainment value in a plane crash
Is something we should find out about
The entertainment value in a plane crash
Is something we should find out about
The entertainment value in a plane crash
Is something we should find out about
Look at the people
Look at them running uh-huh
Where are they going?
Where are they coming from?

When you're here again oh
I wanna feel your charms
I wanna hold you...
George Harrison - "Crackerbox Palace" I was so young when I was born
My eyes could not yet see
And by the time of my first dawn
Somebody holding me, they said
I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace
We've been expecting you
You bring such...
Gilbert O'Sullivan - "I'm Leaving" Living in a town that's on the brink of being a city
Won't satisfy my soul though the women may be pretty
My mind is made up, I have had enough
I'm leaving here today
Shops, walls, pavements,...
Gil Scott-Heron - "Save The Children" If you're driving through the country on a lazy afternoon
Or you're watching your children playing after school
They seem to be so unaware of
The things that they soon have to take care of
We've got...
