Geoff Downes - Wildest Dreams lyrics

They decorated all the generals Who fought the war behind the lines They had forgotten all the soldiers The brandy puts them way behind the times Insanity has found its way to TV screens Vision seems impossible to me They fight for king and country I never would have thought this in my Wildest dreams, wildest dreams Wildest dreams, wildest dreams When evening comes, we sit and watch the veejay's Clips and rushes come from who-knows-where From Washington across to California The fighting breaking out in Leicester Square We see the soldiers moving on to victory And children trampled under marching feet They fight for king and country How many millions will they put to sleep? Wildest dreams, wildest dreams Wildest dreams, wildest dreams Fly away! No, not in this world No, not in the next No, not in my wildest dreams They recommended euthanasia For non-conformers anywhere Some men's dreams for others turn to nightmares This never would have happened in their Wildest dreams, wildest dreams Wildest dreams, wildest dreams Fly away! No, not in this world No, not in the next No, not in my wildest dreams
