Distant Early Warning Lyrics

An ill wind comes arising

 Across the cities of the plain

 There's no swimming in the heavy water

 No singing in the acid rain

 Red alert

 Red alert

 

 It's so hard to stay together

 Passing through revolving doors

 We need someone to talk to

 And someone to sweep the floors

 Incomplete

 Incomplete

 

 The world weighs on my shoulders

 But what am I to do?

 You sometimes drive me crazy

 But I worry about you

 

 I know it makes no difference

 To what you're going through

 But I see the tip of the iceberg

 And I worry about you...

 

 Cruising under your radar

 Watching from satellites

 Take a page from the red book

 Keep them in your sights

 Red alert

 Red alert

 

 Left and rights of passage

 Black and whites of youth

 Who can face the knowledge

 That the truth is not the truth?

 Obsolete

 Absolute

 

 The world weighs on my shoulders

 But what am I to do?

 You sometimes drive me crazy

 But I worry about you

 

 I know it makes no difference

 To what you're going through

 But I see the tip of the iceberg

 And I worry about you

 

 The world weighs on my shoulders

 But what am I to do?

 You sometimes drive me crazy

 But I worry about you

 

 I know it makes no difference

 To what you're going through

 But I see the tip of the iceberg

 And I worry about you

 

 Absalom

 Absalom

 Absalom
