The Tide is Turning.

(Waters)

I used to think the world was flat

Rarely threw my hat into the crowd

I felt I had used up my quota of

yearning

Used to look in on the children at night

In the glow of their Donald Duck light

And I frighten myself with the thought

of my little ones burning

Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning

Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning

Satellites buzzing through the endless

night

Exclusive to moonshots and world title

fights

Jesus Christ, imagine what it must be

earning

Who is the strongest

Who is the best

Who holds the aces

The East

Or the West

This is the crap our children are learning

And oh, oh, the tide is turning

Oh, oh, the tide is turning

Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning

Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning

Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning

Now the satellite's confused

'Cos on Saturday night

The airwaves were full of compassion

and light

And his silicon heart warmed

To the sight of a billion candles burning

But, I'm not saying that the battle is

won

But on Saturday night all those kids in

the sun

Wrested technology's sword from the

hand of the war lords

Oh, the tide is turning

Oh, the tide is turning

Oh, the tide is turning

Oh, the tide is turning.

Nobody Home.

(Waters)

"Alright, I'll take care of them part of the time, but there's somebody else that needs taking care of in Washington"

"Who's that?"

"Rose Pilchitt!"

"Rose Pilchitt? Who's that?"

"Shut Up!"

"36-24-36 does that answer your question?"

"Oi! I've got a little black book with me poems in!"

"Who's she?"

"She was 'Miss Armoured Division' in 1961 ... "

I've got a little black book with my poems in.

Got a bag with a toothbrush and a comb in.

When I'm a good dog, they sometimes throw me a bone in.

I got elastic bands keepin my shoes on.

Got those swollen hand blues.

I got thirteen channels of shit on the T.V. to choose from.

I've got electric light.

And I've got second sight.

And amazing powers of observation.

And that is how I know

When I try to get through 

On the telephone to you

There'll be nobody home.

I've got the obligatory Hendrix perm.

And the inevitable pinhole burns

All down the front of my favorite satin shirt.

I've got nicotine stains on my fingers.

I've got a silver spoon on a chain.

I've got a grand piano to prop up my mortal remains.

I've got wild staring eyes.

And I've got a strong urge to fly.

But I got nowhere to fly to. 

Ooooh, Babe when I pick up the phone

"Surprise, surprise, surprise..."

There's still nobody home.

I've got a pair of Gohills boots

and I got fading roots.

"Where the hell are you?"

"Over 47 german planes were destroyed with the loss of only 15 of our own aircraft"

"Where the hell are you Simon?"
