I used to put the flowers in the dressing room I'm no longer a child I'm all grown up now
I've set them up seen them let me down I've been in the crowd swirling round and round All as one with those songs of Freedom Saying all the things I could never say And I rode with fate on a wing and a prayer And there were four in the bed and the little one said
WE WERE RUNNING SO FAST WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT HAD HIT US AND WE WERE BLIND TO THE WORLD AND THE WORLD WAS BLIND TO US MAJORITY LIKE THE MAJORITY
I see a sea of faces staring up I hear the sound of my beloved in the crowd She's saying give me a future I want it now I don't want my life to know any bounds
'Cause I'm young and I want to run I don't care where to just as I'm with you It could be you or you or you or you And there were four in the bed and the little one said
WE WERE RUNNING SO FAST WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT HAD HIT US AND WE WERE BLIND TO THE WORLD AND THE WORLD WAS BLIND TO US MAJORITY LIKE THE MAJORITY
I see them rise and I see them fall The broken trust and the promises rust When will another one bite the dust, bite the dust
Oh I see them rise and I see them fall The broken trust and the promises rust When will another one bite the dust, bite the dust Bite the dust
Oh I give everything I've ever had to give I bought the books, the records all the politics It was all those words that shaped my dreams There were times when I felt like a human being
I say hello Are you listening now I say hello I say hello, hello
In the lost generation I'm calling out There were four in the bed and the little one said
WE WERE RUNNING SO FAST WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT HAD HIT US AND WE WERE BLIND TO THE WORLD AND THE WORLD WAS BLIND TO US MAJORITY LIKE THE MAJORITY
