Lyrics
The master asleep in his chamber
The beggar asleep in the door
The man In the moon says
I've seen this production before
The prisoner dreams of escaping
In about to a far away places
The stars in the sky say
Look up and we'll show you the way
Heaven or hell
Sometimes you just can't tell
So we keep on walking
Look at the news in the paper
I can't believe all the things I see
Progress is taken for granted
But it's a lie you can take it from me
Civilisations lie swallowed up in the sand
Writer(s): Roger Cook, Hugh Cornwell
