FAR BEYOND THE PROBING EYE
(PHILIP FROST)
Far beyond the probing eye of C.I.A. and F.B.I.
Of K.G.B. and M.I.5 your simple dream is kept alive
A thought you have becomes a word
You wanna say is never heard
We learn to run, we run and fall
And finish backs against the wall

With nothing to sing, nothing to say
They like it better that way
The government say “we’ll make a better day”
I’ve got nothing to say

Bags of cash are spent each day running guns to far away
While we at home give charity
to causes that should never be
We dream of a Utopia, a fertile Ethiopia
The people there don’t wanna play
They’re waiting for a rainy day

With nothing to sing, nothing to say …..

I saw you taking money from the land of milk and honey
Groping on a Playboy Bunny

The children walk the streets at night
They learn to run or learn to fight
Men who speak the truth are shot
God knows when we’ll stop the rot
Wouldn’t it be good to say our generations saved the day

We’re just a lot of frightened men
Who made a world of us and them

With nothing to sing, nothing to say …..

Tell Me 'The' Story ...
For all recorded ...
A simple dream is kept ALIVE ...
Always looking ...
Reach out ...
In outer space ...
Just try and make it HOME ...
