Текст песни Spacesong - Gil Scott-Heron



What has happened is that we have tried to develop some ideas
And somebody asked me to do this earlier today
I saw him at the airport, "Mr Gil, do such-and-such"
I said okay
I didn't know if he was coming or not but I promised
What we decided to do was evaluate how people feel
And people suddenly feel the way the weather is but something has changed about the weather
The water patterns have changed and they have changed because of our constant need to fuck with things
So we wrote a poem about the weather, about space and about war
Spacesong is breezing the hill down all around
Spacesong turns seasons upside down
Spacesong and all the hunger people know
Or change certain fame progress really poor
Space was the place where at least we thought our dreams were safe
Where all our ideas of youth and innocence and grace were floating somewhere high above the planet space are
But the distance has been erased because Uncle Sam got on the case
And ET has joined the arms race
They're up there building some sort of a military base
Rocketing through the atmosphere and sliding into second hear
While miles below the peoples here
There are new invaders on a new frontier
Then there are those that do not sheer the
The gravity of their lives appears and in their eyes fast foes on fields
Because rocket sounds are all they hear
Spacesong is breezing the hill down all around
Spacesong turns seasons upside down
Spacesong and all the hunger people know
Or change certain fame progress really poor
See no matter what man goes looking for
It always seems to find a war
Soon it seems a piece of build
The war invasion somewhere else
We must have somehow been disarmed or lost our heads over false alarms
We were underwhelmed, we were over charmed, we were watching storm clouds from afar
Exploration, proliferation is spending more while pockets fill
Assessments of our investments drive us on to overkill
Practice looks of great surprises as the Captain Kirk of free enterprise
Wall Street says let's play defense those dollar bills make damn good sense
Payoffs of the new protectionism let us assure in a new age of humanism
We can put the cap on capitalism, we got us a flying mechanical railgun is a mad
Spacesong is breezing the hill down all around
Spacesong turns seasons upside down
Spacesong and all the hunger people know
Or change certain fame progress really poor
Space was rage and so Hollyweird took center stage and together wondered whether we would ever get over the weather
Things started to happen that felt so strange it was like a whole new weather pattern had been rearranged
There was a clear day in LA
There was a foot of snow in Tampa Bay
We watched when the Space Shuttle went up and then look weather man just went nuts
Tornadoes and hurricanes, dead rivers and acid rain
Volcanoes ages dead suddenly just got up lost in years
Typhoons, monsoons, and tidal waves comes down form an angry moon as earthquake they got damn timing
And the only common denominator we can find
Spacesong is breezing the hill down all around
Spacesong turns seasons upside down
Spacesong and all the hunger people know
Or change certain fame progress really poor
See no matter what man goes looking for always seems to find a war
Soon as dreams of peace build the war engages somewhere else
Old folks must have had it right because if you remember from the time they saw the very first satellite they said yeah
Some advancements may be good but not in God's neighborhood
Laser beams and moon beams we got peace beams shutdown by war schemes
There's a hole shot through the ozone layer
It is put to fear back into atmosphere
ICBM MX cruise missiles obsolete day
We go spend another billion on the Sajid York and just throw that sumbitch away
War is big business without a doubt so it means a much chance of peace breaking out
Underwater over here God will all be nervous nix because you know where they say they're going next
Spacesong is breezing the hill down all around
Spacesong turns seasons upside down
Spacesong and all the hunger people know
Or change certain fame progress really poor
See no matter what man goes looking for always seems to find a war
Soon as dreams of peace build the war engages somewhere else
No matter what man goes looking for always seems to find a war
Soon as dreams of peace build the war engages somewhere else
No matter what man goes looking for always seems to find a war
No matter what man goes looking for always seems to find a war
No matter what man goes looking for always seems to find a war
No matter what man goes looking for always seems to find a war
Thank you very much, thank you
This is our new spacesong
