J’ai Pollette d’arnu

I can feel the movement Growing all around me everywhere I can hear the language of the revolution every day If you pledge to join me We can fight for reason everywhere All the things we wished for Are ours for the asking anyway Many years ago we lived here All too soon our hopes were drowned Now as if I never knew you Life goes on in different towns And I can walk round you, past you, through you Because you're only ghosts now Yes, I can walk round you, past you, through you Because you're only ghosts now Somehow in this silent city A little of us still remains Mingled with the distant laughter Fused with dust in future rains And I can walk round you, past you, through you Because you're only ghosts now Yes, I can walk round you, past you, through you Because you're only ghosts now

Is it me that you're speaking to? Can you really put me down? Do you know the things to say? What will happen in the meantime? Are you telling me the truth? Can you really put me down? Would you bother if you could? What will happen if you do? What will happen to my friends? Will they be the same as you? Can you tell me if I'm wrong? When will I be right again?

It burns when it's died Runs down my side Before the dawn Robs me of the dark I will remember I never ever Thought for one second It would take me over underwater (help, help, help)

Here we are Alive and free Far away in time from our darkest day That took our young and brave From the cradle to the grave 70 years ago on July one 1916 on the Somme The enemies had never seen fighting like this before Such a simple plan-- How could any german man Survive through that ordeal? Company 'A' to Company 'B' "Morale is high here, sir, but I don't think it's safe to go" Company 'A' from Company 'B' "Mister you have your orders and you must obey" So the first line rose, and the first line fell And a poet who survived later wrote about A "Sunlit vision of Hell" And "Larks singing" Because after all it's just another summer's day in France And the Tommies on the Somme sang "We are fighting to turn no-man's land into a common ground" A common ground

Don't make any false promises Stay awhile when I'm not alone I forget all the anger in me Kiss a tear when the hammer falls They're holding me here in never ending circles I can still remember summer madness I can taste the perfume on your cheek The heat is overcome by coldness Consoling words are insignificant Say you'll pray Justify the actions These are days of the mob rule, sharp tongue, curfew When the mind is in solitary confinement Makes the mood that breaks you There's a spirit seeking liberation Here's a fire with a hungry heart If I listen, maybe time will tell me The reasons why we're torn apart As the years go by Don't make any false promises As the years go by Say you'll pray Here the silence is too loud In a steel barred jail on the other side We invented the differences That weaved the web with which we lied Caught in the middle of a cold war zone I left my lover in a far off place She'll kiss a tear when the hammer's falling And wipe the darkness from my face As the years go by Don't make any false promises As the years go by Say you'll pray As the years go by Don't make any false promises As the years go by Say you'll pray, say you'll pray Just say you'll pray Just say you'll pray

I am just a small town boy But don't hold that against me Mum's a lawyer, Dad's got a bank But really I'm OK Should I stop or should I go I'm full of indecision I'd throw it away for a dollar a day If I could be like... You made me promise not to mention You can call round any time of day and see Me and my family These things are sent to try us Or to land us in hot water Turning grey as my Tube record plays When I call you, come as you are You don't need fancy cars or finery You don't need a credit card to buy me They'll never understand I bite the hand that's feeding me Saying I must be mad--that's a matter of opinion You, I'll give you all of my affection You and I can celebrate defection Get up and go tonight, I've seen the light that's leading me Saying that I'll be back well that's a matter of opinion We'll work we don't care how long it takes us We'll save we'll buy that house on the hill some day Never thought I'd be the black sheep of the family Never thought I'd be the black sheep of the family Control me, console me, conceive me, consume me We all need some space Just a little room to breathe My girl friend sees to me I know that I couldn't do it alone We will shine for you Come and share the atmosphere up here, now that we're Over, over the moon It feels like we're in Heaven, Heaven Over, over the moon It feels like we're in Heaven now Over, over the moon It feels like we're in Heaven, Heaven Over, over the moon It feels like we're in Heaven now Never thought I'd be the black sheep of the family
