Can You HEAR Me? |
| Signal fading |
| Listen to what I’m saying |
| Can you hear me? |
| Can you hear me? |
| Testing, testing |
| Can you hear me? |
| This better be worth all of the breath I’m wasting |
| Hear him coming through loud and clear |
| Hear him treacling in your ear |
| Well, you know your time has come |
| And you’re sorry for what you’ve done |
| All you gangsters |
| You should have never have been playing with a gun |
| Can you hear me? |
| Can you hear me? |
| Hear him coming through loud and clear |
| Hear him treacling in your ear |
| Next week there’ll be some fashionable new sin |
| For each harlot and each puritan |
| Pull off their wings, stick 'em on a pin |
| Can you hear me? |
| And just let the money roll in |
| Can you hear me? |
| Signal fading |
| Listen to what I’m saying |
| Can you hear me? |
| Can you hear me? |
| Testing, testing |
| Can you hear me? |
| This better be worth all of the breath I’m wasting |
| Hear him coming through loud and clear |
| Hear him treacling in your ear |
| There’s a line that you must toe |
| And it’s time for you to go |
| All you gangsters |
| It’s darker than you know |
| Can you hear me? |
| Hear him coming through loud and clear |
| Hear him treacling in your ear |
| The hands of the helpless are raised |
| Your dead little secrets are praised |
| The people stand dumbstruck and dazed |
| Can you hear me? |
| By the inches that you have erased |
| Hear him treacling in your ear |
| Do those drug dealer still polish women made of wax |
| Can you hear me? |
| Can you hear me? |
| Gangsters and world leaders |
| Require the same protection from attack |
| Can you hear me? |
| Can you hear me? |
| Libraries filled up with failed ideas |
| There’s nothing more for me there |
| I trust in tender ink and gentle airs |
| Tape starts running |
| He’s going to tell you something |
| Can you hear me? |
| Can you hear me? |
| Strings start strumming |
| Another humdrum conundrum… |
| Hear him coming through loud and clear |
| Hear him treacling in your ear |
| Barricaded in the talk radio station |
| Hostage taken |
| Can you hear me |
| The red «On-Air"light shines on |
| Can you hear me? |
| Can you hear me? |
| All you gangsters |
| So pay the ransom |
| Before the run-out groove |
| Hear him coming through loud and clear |
| Hear him treacling in your ear |
| Get my wife down here |
| A helicopter on the roof |
| No police marksman |
| Maintaining radio silence from now on |
| Signal fading |
| Listen to what I’m saying |
| Mystery voices drowned out by too much choice |
| Testing, testing |
| Maintaining radio silence |
