Kevin Ayers - Observations lyrics

Guess you know by now or at least you should

There is no volunteer for the common good

Still waiting for the saviour to appear

But he's s not here

And no one's coming down to save your soul

You're the only ones who can assume that role

But your minds are empty and you've lost control

To the ones who sell you dreams

To fill that hole

Some of us I know seem to have much more

Born with a key to every door

Distribution of fortune seems unfair

Same everywhere

And those who have they just want more

Using other peoples weakness to increase their score

Do you really know who you're working for

It's not for one another and that s for sure

Guess you know by now or ac least you should

There is no volunteer for the common good

Still waiting for that saviour to appear

But he's still not here

And no one's s coming down to save your soul

You're the only ones who can assume that role

But your minds are empty

And you've lost control

To the ones who sell you dreams

To fill that hole
