《When A Drum Beats》歌词

[00:00:00] When A Drum Beats - Big Country (大乡野合唱团)

[00:01:04] Is this civilization

[00:01:08] Is this all we're gonna be

[00:01:11] A helpless United Nations

[00:01:15] A censored BBC

[00:01:19] War in the African nations

[00:01:23] Hate in the Middle East

[00:01:27] Just a mess of frustration

[00:01:30] Waiting for release

[00:01:34] Oh no

[00:01:37] When they beat a drum it's too much to swallow

[00:01:42] Oh no

[00:01:45] When they beat that drum it just sounds so hollow

[00:01:50] I'm not ready to fight I'm not ready to go

[00:02:28] I saw an F-111

[00:02:32] Beside a Kremlin guard

[00:02:36] And the Magnificent Seven

[00:02:40] In the printed word

[00:02:44] Is this a public service

[00:02:47] Or a civil war

[00:02:51] While I sit here nervous

[00:02:54] Waiting for a call

[00:02:59] Oh no

[00:03:02] When they beat a drum it's too much to swallow

[00:03:06] Oh no

[00:03:10] When they beat that drum it just sounds so hollow

[00:03:14] I'm not ready to fight I'm not ready to go

[00:03:37] Let cities crumble empires waste

[00:03:45] And generals find a resting place

[00:03:52] For leaders too will be replaced

[00:03:59] If fear and fate come face to face
