《When The Generals Talk》歌词

[00:00:00] When The Generals Talk - Midnight Oil

[00:00:29] Up there up there up there on the platform

[00:00:31] He is speaking to the people

[00:00:33] The people are responding

[00:00:35] With clapping and a'cheering

[00:00:37] But the meaning of the message

[00:00:39] Not revealed to those assembled

[00:00:41] They're taken for a ride

[00:00:43] Taken in his stride

[00:00:45] When the generals talk

[00:00:46] You better listen to him

[00:00:48] When the generals talk

[00:00:50] You better do what he say

[00:00:52] When the generals talk

[00:00:54] You better listen to him

[00:00:56] When the generals talk

[00:00:58] You better do what he say

[00:01:05] There's a rumour in the ranking

[00:01:06] Someone's talking insurrection

[00:01:08] So the general has a purge

[00:01:10] He wants to win elections

[00:01:12] With the certain satisfaction

[00:01:14] That the people are appeased

[00:01:16] Long live the revoluton

[00:01:20] General's very pleased

[00:01:26] When the generals talk

[00:01:27] You better listen to him

[00:01:29] When the generals talk

[00:01:31] You better do what he say

[00:01:33] When the generals talk

[00:01:35] You better listen to him

[00:01:37] When the generals talk

[00:01:38] You better do what he say

[00:01:41] Sitting on the fence both ears to the ground

[00:01:44] The fat cats still push the thin cats around

[00:01:49] Sitting on the fence both ears to the ground

[00:01:52] The fat cats still push the thin cats around

[00:01:56] Sitting on the fence both ears to the ground

[00:02:00] The fat cats still push the thin cats around

[00:02:48] When the generals talk

[00:02:50] You better listen to him

[00:02:52] When the generals talk

[00:02:54] You better do what he say

[00:02:56] When the generals talk

[00:02:57] You better listen to him

[00:03:00] When the generals talk

[00:03:01] You better do what he say

[00:03:03] When the generals talk

[00:03:05] You better listen to him

[00:03:07] When the generals talk

[00:03:09] You better do what he say

[00:03:11] When the generals talk

[00:03:13] When the generals talk

[00:03:15] When the generals talk

[00:03:16] You better listen to him
