《National Amnesia》歌词

[00:05:14] On Wall Street, it's been sheer pandemonium

[00:05:14] On Main Street, children lost and alone again

[00:05:14] Don't tell, I can't handle no more bad news

[00:05:14] (I don't want to know)

[00:05:14] Apartheid: people long for equality

[00:05:14] We all hide in our separate societies

[00:05:14] Don't tell me I can't take no, no more blues

[00:05:14] (What are we gonna do?)

[00:05:14] National Amnesia

[00:05:14] 'Cause I don't really wanna see

[00:05:14] What's going on around us here

[00:05:14] It's so clear that it don't apply to me

[00:05:14] The truth is often frightening

[00:05:14] But one thing should be understood:

[00:05:14] To live in the clouds with your head in the sand is no good

[00:05:14] They're starving, but they're so very far away

[00:05:14] We'll survive, and besides, I've got bills to pay

[00:05:14] Babies holding out their dirty hands

[00:05:14] (I don't want to know)

[00:05:14] Collusion: just make sure that the story's clear

[00:05:14] Disillusion: give them just what they wanna hear

[00:05:14] Confusion all across the world

[00:05:14] (What are we gonna do?)

[00:05:14] National Amnesia

[00:05:14] 'Cause I don't really wanna see

[00:05:14] What's going on around us here

[00:05:14] It's so clear that it don't apply to me

[00:05:14] The truth is often frightening

[00:05:14] But one thing should be understood:

[00:05:14] To live in the clouds with your head in the sand is no good

[00:05:14] Changing times, growing stranger by the year

[00:05:14] That's okay, I hear what I wanna hear

[00:05:14] Look around and try to take a point of view

[00:05:14] Don't you know what goes down turns around and comes back to you?

[00:05:14] (I don't want to know)

[00:05:14] (What are we gonna do?)

[00:05:14] National Amnesia

[00:05:14] 'Cause I don't really wanna see

[00:05:14] What's going on around us here

[00:05:14] It's so clear that it don't apply to me

[00:05:14] The truth is often frightening

[00:05:14] But one thing should be understood:

[00:05:14] To live in the clouds with your head in the sand is no good

[00:05:14] National Amnesia

[00:05:14] Is upon us so what are we gonna do?
