The Big Dipper — текст песни (Heaven 17)

The national nightmare has begun

Empire of fantasy with a dark gloved fist aloft

While the challenger explodes

Banks are failing coming down hard



The way things are going Im moving to the sun belt

Stars and stripes, forever is a long time

Dont ask me whats to be done

Ask what you can do for your country ?



The big dipper coming down

Miss americas lost her crown

Guess Ive spent too long in this old town

No time to run and hide

Weve been taken for a ride

America leads the world in teenage suicide



I always thought it would have been great

To be a part of the united states

A land of unmissed opportunity

A friend seems so far ahead

A land safe on film

Untouched by reality

But like a well played record seemed to scratch

The news that real life and cinema dont match

Even forrest gump cant save us now



The king of hollywood is dead

I dont care what the president said

I dont believe in everything Ive read

The big dippers coming down

New yorks just a shanty town

That distant sound is l.a. burning down



The golden years of justice

The golden years of youth

The golden years of liberty

The golden years of truth



Laser bombin

Status seekin

Trail blazin

Frontier pushin

Space racin

Earth quakin

Jesus freakin

Serial killin

Cult crushin

Net surfin

Networkin

Fast talkin

Gun runnin

Fun lovin

America !



The big dipper coming down

Miss americas lost her crown

Guess Ive spent too long in this old town

No time to run and hide

Weve been taken for a ride

America leads the world in teenage suicide

The big dippers coming down

New yorks just a shanty town

That distant sound is l.a. burning down

The king of hollywood is dead

I dont care what the president said

I dont believe in everything Ive read
