Midnight Oil - Renaissance Man lyrics

Well i told you about the forest and trees and the chlorophyll green Yes i told you the birds will endure flutter wings dance on leaves Hold onto dreams, hold onto dreams tonight Well i told you about the high pressure cell coming down on the breeze And i know that the things you can't see they are hard to believe Hold onto dreams, hold onto dreams tonight A new world order has been formed Between the cheque book and the dawn A new renaissance man is born Renaissance man are you ready Renaissance man Renaissance man are you ready See what a world that you can make Well i heard about the spirit of life is it flickering still Yes i heard that the dark bellied angel's come running up the hill Hold onto dreams, hold onto dreams tonight Smash and grab the women and child All the souls are growing wild Stripped so bare well the universe stares It's so close to home that we got to share with you So many genuine things surround you Wild weather man well it still confounds you Cast away the greed and d**h machine and bytes And abacus and lights and hold onto your dreams tonight So you found a hard won friend To hold your hand and hold your head A new renaissance to defend Hold onto dreams, hold onto dreams tonight Where are we going to be, in 3033 What's spinning round your brain Are you a renaissance man or are you a renaissance woman If you jump out an angel will give you wings (moginie/garrett/rotsey)
