Testo I Heard a Rumour - Conflict
Testo della canzone I Heard a Rumour (Conflict), tratta dall'album The Final Conflict
Time and time again, we hear the same old rumours
Come here with this, come here with that
Have you heard the one about cops that smash windows
Just because they're based on fact?
Have you heard the one about the anarchist blast?
Don't really think those are all conflicts
People can't find any respect
Try to make a point, you stumble, "Oh, I didn't hear you ask"
Time and time again, we hear the same old rumours
Come here with this, come here with that
Last time I heard the case, you don't know jack
'Bout the families that lie down in Brixton
They say the people they should be displeased
But where were they when it was offered and learned?
It's true, killing is wrong, but it's going on
It's not the problem that's solved, it's the culture's fault
No matter how they rip up the band
The fire burns the music's spirit alive
Same animals dragged through the A.L.F
Same accounts of the animals that put it all to rest
I heard the victims' test they give
They talk of the work, blood and tears
They say their movement's been destroyed
It's just another cop deployed
Time and time again, we hear the same old rumours
Come here with this, come here with that
Though the case of Babylon's so sincere
They've shown it's just not done so clear
I've heard it through the grass, the words are through
Same dirty trick we've heard it for years
Drop it, forget it, you've got it fucking wrong
And why I'm about it, should I sing it, should I shout it?
Stand on the world stage, the emotion, the outrage
Tugging the fine line for a slagging of a new age
And just when we attempted to spark a little hope
Fickle finger started wagging, you're just a fading joke
You never wanted leaders, you treated us as such
When we said, "No more of this," and kicked away your crutch
You accused us of hypocrisy and ripping people off
New coalface left the city, we told you weren't enough
Who's been here for animal rights on savings? Speak out
Oh yeah, and why I'm about it, should I scream or should I shout?
Progress is what you've made, the song remains the same
We gather in down in Brixton, who is it to blame?
Blame for causing riots, blame for causing violence
Blame for you for being fooled and blame for being silent
Drop it, forget it, you've got it fucking wrong
