Colin Macintyre Pay Attention To The Human (feat. Tony Benn)
So what you gonna do now you're dead
Don't let go, they'll hear your mouse click for support
They'll hear your digital reports
They'll know your blood is flowing cold
And here you are, you're alive
Anything is possible
Cold hearts and souls
Your voice in tact your spirits bold
The camera's flash, the light is red
The armchair's wait to zap your head
And here you are, you're alive
Anything is possible
In war
I want to love you
I want to know it's you
I want to see you
I want to get you through
Pay attention to the human
Pay attention to the human
Force your soul
To hear their doubts and let them go
To hear their bombs and trigger's flow
You're in the their sights
Smile smile
And here you are, you're alive
Anything is possible
In war
I want to love you
I want to know it's you
I want to see you
I don't want to die too soon!
Pay attention to the human..
(You know it's, you know it's wrong..)
In a front room, in a city
A family waits for pity
Don't understand, don't try to understand
Death of a scientist
Death of the salesman
Death of a culture
Death of a nation
You wake from the shadows
My little one, you're old enough to know
You wake from the shadows
It's funny how, it's funny now
It's funny how
That you were made in the digital age
That you were taken in the digital age
"We the people" they all say
But do they treat us thus?
Or are we units in a game they play
Men, Women, Black and White
Rich, Poor, Young, Old, Straight or Gay
Defined and safely filed away
For Pollsters, Salesmen and MPs
To be bought or bribed to make them rich
Or Enemies who must be killed
People are made of flesh and blood
With hearts and minds and hopes
And fears, and all just want a Life
Which we must nurture to survive
We have the power to end the world
We have the power to save the world
The Choice is ours: It is a Moral Choice
To work together in both Peace and Love
We must break Free and be ourselves
There lies the hope for all the human race
