God save somebody
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
People are saying money's falling off the trees
But I don't see nobody here with a piece
Nobody got it, everybody want it
Even people out there begging on the streets
From Red Square right down to the sea
Step down off the side-walk and you might see
Something going on make a poor heart bleed
Sounds like a new age world stampede
God save somebody
God save somebody
Well all through the land
Everybody lend a hand
God Save somebody
Broke walls, people digging through
Skidding on the tarmac, tripping on the view
Halfway useful
Wholeway hopeful
Soaking their hearts in a vision of food
Welcome west to the world excess
Bet you halfway through some will settle for less
With a big break sleeping rough at night
On a stone floor like freezed ice
God save somebody
God save somebody
Well all through the land
Everybody lend a hand
God Save somebody
Well whole place looks like a war's going on
Flash floods and fire bombs
A whole bunch of folk who say it ain't so
But they're from a place nobody goes
Shell shock and big decay
No policies made gonna take that away
Bells ringing out right now for the day
They're even trying to tear down God's Highway
God save somebody
You better save somebody
Well all through the land
Everybody lend a hand
God Save somebody
God save somebody
God save somebody
Well all through the land
Everybody lend a hand
God save somebody
(God save somebody)
God save somebody
(God save somebody)
They're even trying to tear down God's Highway
You better save somebody
(God save somebody)
Well the bells ringing out right now for the day
You better save somebody
(God save somebody)
Save somebody
(God save somebody)
You better save somebody
(God save somebody)
Well it sounds like a funeral
You better save somebody
