When The Eagle Flies — текст песни (Steve Winwood)

When the eagle flies youd better watch your eyes

Hes gonna sweep everything in his path

And when the heavens cry its gonna drown the sky

And youll get caught in the aftermath

When the mountains move its no good trying

To prove that youve been doing everything you can

And dont you start to cry when youre about to die

You gotta stand up and take it like a man

Because youve been taking instead of giving

And all the while youve been living lies

Economics, all your atomics

Aint gonna save you from that bird in the sky

And when the good times roll wrapped up in your mink coat

You will be stepping from your cadillac

You will be stepping from your cadillac

And in a micro flash youre gonna feel the lash

Of big eagles wing across your back

And when the seas subside youll see him glide right out of view

In clouds of snow the rains will come

And wash away the scum so that all the little flowers can grow

Therell be no more taking, only giving

And the sun pouring down

No economics and no atomics

Just the spread of mother natures gown

Do you hear me, mother nature? ...
