emerson lake palmer - karn evil 9 كلمات الأغنية

[karn evil 9 1st impression part 1]

cold and misty morning, i heard a warning borne in the air
about an age of power where no one had an hour to spare,
where the seeds have withered, silent children shivered, in the cold
now their faces captured in the lenses of the jackals for gold.
i’ll be there
i’ll be there
i will be there.

suffering in silence, they’ve all been betrayed.
they hurt them and they beat them, in a terrible way.
praying for survival at the end of the day.
there is no comp-ssion for those who stay.
i’ll be there
i’ll be there
i will be there

there must be someone who can set them free:
to take their sorrow from this odyssey
to help the helpless and the refugee
to protect what’s left of humanity.
can’t you see
can’t you see
can’t you see

i’ll be there
i’ll be there
i will be there;

to heal their sorrow
to beg and borrow
fight tomorrow.

step inside! h-llo! we’ve a most amazing show

we’ve got thrills and shocks, supersonic fighting c-cks.

left behind the bars, rows of bishops’ heads in jars
and a bomb inside a car
spectacular! spectacular!

if you follow me there’s a speciality
some tears for you to see
misery, misery,

roll up! roll up! roll up!
see the show!

next upon the bill in our house of vaudeville
we’ve a stripper in a till
what a thrill! what a thrill!

and not content with that,
with our hands behind our backs,
we pull jesus from a hat,
get into that! get into that!

roll up! roll up! roll up!
see the show!

greatest show in heaven, h-ll or earth

you’ve got to see the show, it’s rock and roll, oh

right before your eyes we pull laughter from the skies
and he laughs until he cries, then he dies, then he dies

come inside, the show’s about to start
guaranteed to blow your head apart
you’ve got to see the show, it’s a dynamo
you’ve got to see the show, it’s rock and roll, oh

will perform on guillotine, what a scene, what a scene
next upon the stand will you please extend a hand
to alexander’s ragtime band, dixieland, dixieland

roll up, roll up, roll up
see the show

performing on a stool we’ve a sight to make you drool
seven virgins and a mule, keep it cool, keep it cool
we would like it to be known the exhibits that were shown
were exclusively our own, all our own, all our own

come and see the show, come and see the show
come and see the show
see the show

[instrumental]

[karn evil 9 3rd impression]

man alone, born of stone,
will stamp the dust of time
his hands strike the flame of his soul;
ties a rope to a tree and hangs the universe
until the winds of laughter blows cold.

fear that rattles in men’s ears
and rears its hideous head
dread… death… in the wind…

man of steel pray and kneel
with fever’s blazing torch
thrust in the face of the night;
draws a blade of comp-ssion
kissed by countless kings
whose jewelled trumpet words blind his sight.

walls that no man thought would fall
the altars of the just
crushed… dust… in the wind…

no man yields who flies in my ship
danger!
let the bridge computer speak
stranger!
load your program. i am yourself.

no computer stands in my way
only blood can cancel my pain
guardians of a new clear dawn
let the maps of war be drawn.

rejoice! glory is ours!
our young men have not died in vain,
their graves need no flowers
the tapes have recorded their names.

i am all there is
negative! primitive! limited! i let you live!
but i gave you life
what else could you do?
to do what was right
i’m perfect! are you?
