Can't Hear the Words

Album: Worlds l.p.
Release Date: 1985


Complicated words are stated
Theories become outdated
The innovation of your crime
Is out of tune and out of time

Chorus:
No! No! I don't like it!
No! No! I don't like it!
What we gonna do about it?
Let's sit down and talk about it

Action speaks louder than silence
But action is more than just violence
The ghouts are too strong to keep down
But you can't hear the words 'cos the music's too loud

Chorus

Political voices
Distortionate noises
The products of our teenage dreams
Is this what entertainment means?
The piercing sound of teenage screams
Talking can't change anything
Someone said 'the boy can't sing'
This entertainment is absurd
You're so busy fighting you can't hear the words
All your violence is in vain
You action men are all the same
Action is more than mindless violence
Look at yourself in paranoid silence
