《Don’t Hold Your Breath》歌词

[00:00:01] Don't Hold Your Breath - Dave Dobbyn

[00:00:16] The biggest companies in the world in conference

[00:00:18] In Geneva by the lakeside

[00:00:23] Warm smiles friendly faces- Peace proposals in briefcases

[00:00:30] Lines of borders on the map on the table

[00:00:33] They replace with dotted lines

[00:00:37] We read about it in free newspapers

[00:00:39] Then they started to unwind

[00:00:44] Within a week all the refugees of the world

[00:00:47] Lived in five-star hotels

[00:00:51] Twenty-four hour room-service- free telephone- no bills

[00:00:58] And the trucks got through to Africa- into Eritrea and the Sudan

[00:01:05] Laden down with western surplus- it served it's purpose

[00:01:09] Eased a conscience or two

[00:01:14] She said don't fool me know- I believe every word that you said

[00:01:22] Don't hold out while it's sounding so good

[00:01:29] Don't fool around when what you believe could come true

[00:01:36] Don't hold your breath Don't hold your breath

[00:01:54] US congress voted Texas back to the Mexicans

[00:01:58] California to the Jews

[00:02:01] Huge tracts of Arizona to the Navajo

[00:02:04] Nevada to the Sioux

[00:02:08] The twelve tribes of Israel got down in Gaza for the last time

[00:02:15] By the time they got to the West Bank- baby- it was Palestine

[00:02:28] The French stopped nuking the Pacific

[00:02:31] They planted trees in Brazil instead

[00:02:35] And they made Antarctica a world park- baby

[00:02:38] Plenty of ozone above your head

[00:02:41] She said don't fool me know- I believe every word that you said

[00:02:48] Don't hold out while it's sounding so good darling

[00:02:56] Don't fool around when what you believe could come true

[00:03:03] Don't hold your breath- Don't hold your breath

[00:03:18] All my innocence long since turned to dust

[00:03:24] I carry my cynicsm- like a tourist with a camera

[00:03:32] Yeah You and me my sweet darling- we'll grow old with Grace

[00:03:41] And our children grow up in the valley of Love

[00:03:48] They'll be so damn well educated- so well informed

[00:03:55] And we'll sit back with our arms folded

[00:03:58] Watch 'em change it Watch it burn

[00:04:01] She said don't fool me now- I believe every word that you said

[00:04:09] Don't hold your breath- Don't hold your breath

[00:04:23] Don't hold your breath- Don't hold your breath
