Breakfast in America (1979)

Child of Vision
 

 




Well, who do you think you're foolin'?
You say you're having fun
But you're busy going nowhere

Just lying in the sun

You tried to be a hero
Commit the perfect crime
But the dollar got you dancing
And you're running out of time

You're messin' up the water
You're rolling in the wine
You're poisoning your body
You're poisoning your mind

You gave me Coca-Cola
'Cause you said it tasted good
And you watch your television
'Cause it tells you that you should

How can you live in this way?
(Why do you think it's so strange?)
You must have something to say
(Tell me why should I change?)
There must be more to this life
It's time we did something right

I said, child of vision, won't you listen?
Find yourself a new ambition

I've heard it all before
You're saying nothing new
I thought I saw a rainbow
But I guess it wasn't true
You cannot make me listen
And I cannot make you hear
So you find your way to heaven

and I'll meet you when you're there

How can you live in this way?
(Why do you think it's so strange?)
You must have something to say
(Tell me why should I change?)
We have no reason to fight
'Cause we both know that we're right

Child of vision, won't you listen?
Find yourself a new ambition
