《Ringing Of Revolution(Live)》歌词

[00:07:19] 锘縄n a building of gold, with riches untold,

[00:07:19] lived the families on which the country was founded.

[00:07:19] And the merchants of style, with their red velvet smiles,

[00:07:19] were there, for they also were hounded.

[00:07:19] And the soft middle class crowded in to the last,

[00:07:19] for the building was fully surrounded.

[00:07:19] And the noise outside was the ringing of revolution.

[00:07:19] Sadly they stared and sank in their chairs

[00:07:19] and searched for a comforting notion.

[00:07:19] And the rich silver walls looked ready to fall

[00:07:19] As they shook in doubtful devotion.

[00:07:19] The ice cubes would clink as they freshened their drinks,

[00:07:19] wet their minds in bitter emotion.

[00:07:19] And they talked about the ringing of revolution.

[00:07:19] We were hardly aware of the hardships they beared,

[00:07:19] for our time was taken with treasure.

[00:07:19] Oh, life was a game, and work was a shame,

[00:07:19] And pain was prevented by pleasure.

[00:07:19] The world, cold and grey, was so far away

[00:07:19] In the distance only money could measure.

[00:07:19] But their thoughts were broken by the ringing of revolution.

[00:07:19] The clouds filled the room in darkening doom

[00:07:19] as the crooked smoke rings were rising.

[00:07:19] How long will it take, how can we escape

[00:07:19] Someone asks, but no one's advising.

[00:07:19] And the quivering floor responds to the roar,

[00:07:19] In a shake no longer surprising.

[00:07:19] As closer and closer comes the ringing of revolution.

[00:07:19] Softly they moan, please leave us alone

[00:07:19] As back and forth they are pacing.

[00:07:19] And they cover their ears and try not to hear
