The morning paper said
the man was shot on the night .
The television news
and radio went so crazy .
But I could not understand at all ,
cause the man they shot used to be called
just a bum , a good for nothing man of town .
And then they buried him
with all the pomp of a knight .
Just like a movie when the
bad guy turns out so right .
So I laughed it off , and turned the page :
and everyone was in a rage .
That was long ago : its much the same right now .
Its just a matter of time before it changes .
No matter where , you can find it in the pages .
The blind are leading the blind ; have been for ages .
Its like an underground fire that always blazes .
Boys , boys , boys in the city .
Boys , boys , boys in the city .
In the past they had their swords and horses .
And today , its guns and cars and power .
Dont you gamble with their luck and forces .
If you mess with the underground " boys ."
They wont leave you alone .
I knew a man who needed
cash , he took out a loan .
He couldnt pay it back ,
they took his car and his home .
In Japan and in America ,
in Brazil , France , England , Africa ;
theres a fire of greed that burns out the good in man .
Its just a matter of time before it changes .
No matter where , you can find it in the pages .
The blind are leading the blind ; have been for ages .
Its like an underground fire that always blazes .
Boys , boys , boys in the city .
Boys , boys , boys in the city .
In the past they had their swords and horses .
And today , its guns and cars and power .
Dont you gamble with their luck and forces .
If you mess with the underground " boys ."
They wont leave you alone .
Boys , boys , boys in the city
Its just a matter of time before it changes .
No matter where , you can find it in the pages .
