Текст песни: World in Action + перевод

Where will you go, when the sirens blow?

Will you run helter-skelter, in search of a shelter

Or will you lie low?

Will you sit there clutching at your lucky charm

Or pray to your god to keep you from harm?

Maybe you’ll believe it’s just another false alarm

There’s a world in action all around us World in action for all to see

You’d better hide behind your religion

Is there a future for you or for me?

The devil’s broken out, he’s breaking deals

Disregard law and order, and head for the border

To hide in them hills

Will you sit there clutching at the final straw

Hoping that your ticket’s in the final draw

If you read between the lines you’ll discover there’s a fatal flaw

There’s a world in action all around us World in action for all to see

You’d better hide behind your religion

Is there a future, is there a future?

World in action, world in action

And the leaders in the backroom are counting up the toll

It’s defend or attack, no turning back

'Till it’s out of control

Will you turn away and wash your hands

Or stand there shaking with your head in the sands?

Or leave it to the people who pretend they understand

There’s a world in action all around us World in action for all to see

You’d better hide behind your religion

Is there a future for you or for me?

World in action all around us World in action for all to see

You’d better hide behind your religion

Is there a future, is there a future?

World in action all around us World in action for all to see

You’d better hide behind your religion

Is there a future for you or for me?

World in action
