See the Banners Fall - John Farnham

作词：D. Hirschfelder/R. Fraser/John Farnham

作曲：D. Hirschfelder/R. Fraser/John Farnham

All the world's a stage they say

But who decides the parts we play

A mourner in the Lebanon

A logger in the Amazon

Soldiers in the square of shame

Our children play in acid rain

They won't pay a martyr's bail

Black fella in a white man's jail

See the Banners fall

Hear the future call

Time to start again

They're dancing on the wall

Can you hear them call

See the Banners fall

The Colonel wears Pierre Cardin

But clothes don't always make the man

The teacher preaches what he's told

But can the preacher save your soul

See the Banners fall

Hear the future call

Time to start again

They're dancing on the wall

Can you hear them call

See the Banners fall

See the Banners fall

Hear the future call

Time to start again

They're dancing on the wall

Can you hear them call

See the Banners fall

Eagles in a sea of oil

Noble men on barren soil

Children waiting in the wings

Wonder what the future brings

See the Banners fall

Hear the future call

Time to start again

They're dancing on the wall

Can you hear them call

See the Banners fall

See the Banners fall

Hear the future call

Time to start again

They're dancing on the wall

Can you hear them call

See the Banners fall

See the Banners fall

Hear the future call

Time to start again

They're dancing on the wall

Can you hear them call

See the Banners fall
