Days

It was in the days of discontent
Of anarchy and rage
When Babylon was burning
That the music came of age
The bands were fast and furious
Commitment was the word
The future still unwritten
In the days that changed the world
It started out by word of mouth
That great unholy din
From auntie’s midnight rambler
And the NME within
An empire seemed to tremble
As the revolution stirred
The pistols they were loaded
In the days that changed the world
Days that changed the world…
The days that changed the world…
The pistols they were loaded in
The days that changed the world
When Ziggy got his big idea
And Slowhand showed his cards
We rallied to the carnival
And partied in the parks
Fat Martin and his bullyboys
From marching were deterred
When black and white united in
The days that changed the world
But later on the telethon
The stars came out to play
The global conscience came alive
To feed the world that day
And after famous, rich and laid
The saint became a sir
He earned his reputation in
A day that changed the world
The days that changed the world…
A day that changed the world…
He earned his reputation in
A day that changed the world
The songs have been forgotten
And the Verses have been burned
While dirty Mags and Rupert’s rags
Have left no stone unturned
With talking vermin crawling out
In colours new unfurled
Like you and I they all survived
The days that changed the world
Now Johnny’s wearing Mambo suits
With thinning orange hair
And Joseph in his combat coat’s
A denim millionaire
And me — so glad to be a dad
And living with a girl —
I hardly ever think about
The days that changed the world
Days that changed the world…
The days that changed the world…
I hardly ever think about
The days that changed the world
But sometimes in the dead of night
I dream of other men
Of Rolan Adams, Rodney King
And Jean Marie Le Pen
The many friends who passed away
Whose voice was never heard…
Humanity’s still waiting for
The days that change the world
Days that change the world…
The days that change the world…
Humanity’s still aching for
The days that change the world
