Paroles
Racing between mysticism and revolution, as we all do these days. If God were a computer, undoubtedly he'd blow up the world, which would be the answer. If not, we have to come to a political revolution, unfortunately. So this, in the hopes of saving the world, here's a revolutionary, a modern American revolutionary song. It's called "Another Age," and it was written, I started to write it in Hawaii when I ran across a solider who was just walking around Hawaii having come back from Vietnam. And he wasn't seeking employment. There's a man walking 'round the island with a snake cane He picked it up in Thailand from a hurricane And you know he's not gonna go there He's been one time too long Now all the games are gone The younger boys are drowning in a shallow sea The night belongs to snipers in palm trees And their sabres flashed like lightning In the charge of the last brigade They must have been afraid Soldiers have their sorrow The wretched have their rage Pray for the aged It's the dawn of another age Of another age Of another age Of another age And the blood's running down the blackboard on a blind screen The convicts shake the cages of a bad dream And they'll coach you in the classroom that it cannot happen here But it has happened here The c*ckroach cops are crawling on a battleground The shields are in the shadows, it's a college town And they'll teach you law and order If you dare to raise your hand Spare the club and spoil the man Soldiers have their sorrow The wretched have their rage Pray for the aged It's the dawn of another age Of another age Of another age Of another age Thomas Paine and Jesse James, old friends And Robin Hood is riding on the road again We were born in a revolution and we died in a wasted war It's gone that way before The dogs are chasing chicken bones across the lawn If that was an election, I'm a Viet Cong So I pledge allegiance against the flag And the fall for which it stands Pledge allegiance to he land Soldiers have their sorrow The wretched have their rage Pray for the aged It's the dawn of another age Of another age Of another age Of another age Of another age
