Somethin`s Goin` On — текст песни (Ian Hunter)

(Ian Hunter)

The spirit of war is all around us
`N` everybody knows somethin`s goin` on

Fasten your seat belts - say goodbye to your mothers
Cos everybody knows somethin`s goin` on

Nuclear missiles - cover to cover
Everybody knows somethin`s goin` on

The world is a subway - all the leaders are muggers
`N` everybody knows somethin`s goin` on

Well I say
Roll up to the party - welcome to the show
We`ll make you live in fear - then we`ll make you disappear
Somethin`s goin` on `n` everybody knows

What you got - what you got
Everybody knows somethin`s goin` on
Most people got nothin` - a few got the lot
`N` everybody knows - it`s still goin` on

Well I say
Roll up to the circus - welcome to death row
Just do what we say - then we`ll blow you all away
Somethin`s goin` on `n` everybody knows

What about hunger... are they just another number?
We`re all an endangered species
`N` everybody knows - it`s still goin` on

Well I say
Welcome to Thanksgiving - what we reap is what we sow
We`ll watch you die in vain from the safety of our plane
Somethin`s goin` on `n` everybody knows
