Brian Eno - Fantastic Voyage lyrics

[Verse 1] In the event That this fantastic voyage Should turn to erosion And we never get old Remember it is true, dignity is valuable But our lives are valuable too [Chorus] We are learning to live with somebody's depression And I do not want to live with somebody's depression We will get by, I suppose It is a very modern world But nobody's perfect [Verse 2] It is a moving world But that is no reason To shoot some of those missiles Think of us as fatherless scum It will not be forgotten Because we will never say anything nice again, will we? And the wrong words make you listen In this criminal world Remember it is true, loyalty is valuable But our lives are valuable too [Chorus] We are learning to live with somebody's depression And I do not want to live with somebody's depression We will get by I suppose But any sudden movement I have got to write it down They wipe out an entire race and I have got to write it down But I am still getting educated but I have got to write it down And it will not be forgotten Cause I will never say anything nice again, how can I?
