Introduction to Solution — текст песни (Kinks)

Sung by the tramp:



While the rich get their kicks with their affluent antics

Mr. black sits and ponders their fate.

He just sits in the gloom of his dimly-lit room

Waiting for them to swallow the bait.

While the rich run their rackets he sits in his attic

And casually clocks their defeat.

While the politicians cover up mistakes that theyve made

And all the promises, the lies and deceits.

A military coup has been long overdue.

Now theres fighting and panic in the streets.

Amid the mass disillusion, disorder and confusion,

He will rise now his plan is complete.

But me, Im only standing here

Watching it all go on and Im watching it all go wrong

And its painfully clear that the battle is near

And I wish I could just disappear.



While flash and his men drink champagne in their den

And debase life with crude ostentation,

The poor cry for more, but theyre reaching the point

Where the people cant stand any more.

But me, Im only standing here

Watching it all go on, and Im watching it all go wrong

And its painfully clear that the battle is near

And I wish I could just disappear.
