Observations - Kevin Ayers

Guess you know by now or at least you should

There is no volunteer for the common good

Still waiting for the saviour to appear

But hes s not here

And no ones coming down to save your soul

Youre the only ones who can assume that role

But your minds are empty and youve lost control

To the ones who sell you dreams

To fill that hole

Some of us I know seem to have much more

Born with a key to every door

Distribution of fortune seems unfair

Same everywhere

And those who have they just want more

Using other peoples weakness to increase their score

Do you really know who youre working for

Its not for one another and that s for sure

Guess you know by now or ac least you should

There is no volunteer for the common good

Still waiting for that saviour to appear

But hes still not here

And no ones s coming down to save your soul

Youre the only ones who can assume that role

But your minds are empty

And youve lost control

To the ones who sell you dreams

To fill that hole
