The Circus |
Call it new technology |
And they use it to burn |
And they show no concern |
Work for their prosperity |
While the big wheels turn |
Now it’s too late to learn |
Don’t upset the teacher |
Though we know he lied to you |
Don’t upset the preacher |
He’s gonna close his eyes for you |
And it’s a shame |
That you’re so afraid |
Just a worker waiting |
In the pouring rain |
Putting back the pieces |
Of a broken dream |
Putting back the pieces |
Of a broken dream |
Father worked in industry |
Now the work has moved on |
And the factory’s gone |
See them sell your history |
Where once you were strong |
And you used to belong |
There was once a future |
For a working man |
There was once a lifetime |
For a skillful hand yesterday |
And it’s a shame |
That you’re so afraid |
Just a worker waiting |
In the pouring rain |
Putting back the pieces |
Of a broken dream |
Putting back the pieces |
Of a broken dream |
There was once a future |
For a working man |
There was once a lifetime |
For a skillful hand yesterday |
And it’s a shame |
That you’re so afraid |
Just a worker waiting |
In the pouring rain |
Putting back the pieces |
Of a broken dream |
Putting back the pieces |
Of a broken dream |
Putting back the pieces |
Of a broken dream |
Of a broken, of a broken dream |
