Joe Jackson - The Human Touch lyrics

Some say the world is spinning faster Some say it isn't fast enough Some people say they've got the answer And some are scared to say they can't keep up I read the paper but it still isn't clear The bombs are falling but i'm still here I know all the figures and i know all the facts But all i can do is keep trying . . . . To look for the human touch Life is hard when you've got nothing Life can be hard when you've got too much Sometimes i wonder what's the difference It's only better with someone to touch I got the telephone stuck to my ear I keep yelling but you don't hear In all the universe i'm just a speck of dust But all i can do is keep trying . . . . To give you the human touch You know we're nothing in the scheme of things Just microchips in big machines And the world is spinning round and round But i know that we can slow it down And i know that i can make you see I'm on the side of you and me And all i want to do Listen to me . . . Is give you . . . give you Give you the human touch
