What Would He Say?

  • If he is watching still
    I'd feel ashamed
    What would he think of us?
    So cold and mean

    And cold's not what he was
    Nor full of bitter thoughts
    None that I could see
    Nor kept from me

    Let a world go by
    What a shame
    Is there none left to try to save?

    Oh, does nothing change?
    Only objects alter
    All those high class games at the altar
    What's inside is nothing, what a waste

    In a world full of pain
    Why add to it?
    When there's none left to blame
    You gotta face up to it

    Oh, does nothing change?
    Only objects alter
    All those high class games at the altar
    What's inside is nothing, what a waste

    Stumbling down a street
    Tied at two left feet
    Those days so far away
    What would he say?

    That we've no patience now
    We've gone too far
    And it only takes a spark
    To start a war Writer/s: Paul John Weller
