Songtexte Act 2: Scene 2: The Ship of State Is All at Sea - Roger Waters
The
ship
of
state
is
all
at
sea
The
King
is
confused
′Tis
hard
enough
to
place
one
foot
before
the
last
To
tread
a
path
preordained
by
a
law
divine
But
to
pad
all
aimless
on
a
shifting
sea
Each
man
an
island
free
to
choose
his
fate
God's
death;
what
dizzy,
giddy,
fall
from
grace...
Commerce,
that
barometer
of
faith
Tolls
warning
of
the
coming
storm
No
coffee
in
the
marketplace
No
peace
on
earth
for
rich
or
poor
