Jack Bruce - Only Playing Games lyrics

So close to one another Dancing armoured shadows Tornadoes Chasing digital figures With romantic names Only playing games Bright British bayonets Bringing kingdom come To the beat of a dark drum Their work is not forgotten Red is always shamed Only playing games People of the future Scattered to the cities Where they don't want to be Fighting desperate battles With the diesel rain Only playing games So far from one another Spending endless days Far over the sea Watch them burn In the sun's flame Only playing games
