Songtexte Witness (Live) - Electric Light Orchestra

I saw an ant devour sherman mountain
Slip across the floor in the river of honey
I saw the locust drinking from a fountain
It smiled at me as I paid my money

Caus' I'm a witness, witness, see the writing on the wall
I'm a witness, witness, I say I've seen it all
Caus' I'm a witness, witness, I've got all the proof
I'm a witness, witness, I swear to tell the truth

I saw her buying in the face of fashion
Who'll believe with her little white lies
I saw her arrive on my bed of passion
But I never saw a look of love in her eyes

Caus' I'm a witness, witness, see the writing on the wall
I'm a witness, witness, I say I've seen it all
I'm a witness, witness, I've got all the proof
I'm a witness, witness, I swear to tell the truth

Some days my eyes can see for miles and miles around
Some nights my dreams just take me deep underground
My minds a time machine, I'm in the future and the past
The past scrape away

Caus' I'm a witness, witness, see the writing on the wall
I'm a witness, witness, I say I've seen it all
Caus' I'm a witness, witness, I've got all the proof
I'm a witness, witness, I swear to tell the truth

I'm a witness, witness, see the writing on the wall
I'm a witness, witness, I say I've seen it all
I'm a witness, witness, I've got all the proof
I'm a witness, witness, I swear to tell the truth

Witness, witness, witness
Witness, witness, witness
Witness, witness, witness
Witness, witness, witness
