paroles de chanson Shut 'em Down (Live 1983) - Gil Scott-Heron



Did you feel that tumble, did you hear that sound?
Well, it wasn't no eartquake, but it shook the ground
It made me think about power, like it or not
I got to work for Earth for what it's worth 'cause it's the only Earth we've got
Shut 'em down
If that's the only way to stop them from melting down, melting down
Shut 'em down, save the light
If that's the only way to keep them from melting down
I've heard a lot about safety and human error
A few dials and gauges is just a wing and a prayer
And if you need perfection, and that's what it takes
Well, then you don't need people, can't use people
You know people make mistakes
Shut 'em down
If that's the only way to stop them from melting down
Yeah, shut 'em down, save the light
If that's the only way to keep them from melting down
Yeah, shut 'em down
If that's the only way to stop them from melting down, melting down
Shut 'em down, save the light
If that's the only way to keep them from melting down
Did you hear that rumble, did you hear that sound?
Well, it wasn't no eartquake, but it shook the ground
It made me think about power, like it or not
I got to work for Earth for what it's worth 'cause it's the only Earth we've got
Shut 'em down
If that's the only way to stop them from melting down, melting down
Shut 'em down, save the light
If that's the only way to stop them from melting down
Don't need crystal ball here
Shut 'em down, shut 'em down, shut 'em down, shut 'em down
Say you will, say you will, say you will
Shut 'em down, save the light
If that's the only way to keep them from melting down, melting down
Say you will, say you will
If that's the only way to keep them safe
If that's the only way to keep them safe
If that's the only way to keep them safe
If that's the only way to keep them from melting down
I wanna shut 'em, shut 'em, shut 'em, shut 'em, shut 'em down
Lock the door, walk away
Lock the door, slip away
Lock the door, slide away
Lock the door, run away
Lock the door and hide away
Lock the door and move away
Lock the door and get away
If that's the only way to stop them from melting down
I wanna shut 'em, shut 'em, shut 'em, shut 'em, shut 'em down
I ain't got but one thing to say y'all
Yeah, shut 'em down, save the light
If that's the only way to keep them from melting down
We'll be back in a very few minutes
Thank you very much
