Land of Confusion

This is the world we live in
Well this is the world we live in
They're moving into the street
But there's not much love to go round

That we know, we'll never keep
Now this is the world we live in

And these are the hands we're given
Yes, and the stars were bright all through the night

And these are the hands we're given

This is the world we live in
But I can see the fire's still alight

And not much love to go round

So we look for the future
They say the danger's gone away
My generation will put it right
Making too many problems
To make it a place worth fighting for
Use them and let's start trying

Tell me why, this is a land of confusion

But I can hear the marching feet
Stand up and let's start showing
There burning into the night
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
This is the time, this is the place
Making too many problems
To make it a place worth living in
Can't you see, this is a land of confusion?
I won't be coming home tonight
And these are the names we're given
Use them and let's start trying
And not much love to go round
And the sound of your laughter as I held you tight, so long ago
I remember long ago when the sun was shining
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Now did you read the news today
The men of steel, the men of power

We're not just making promises
Ooh, Superman where are you now
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?
To make it a place worth living in
Too many men, there's too many people
There's too many men, too many people
Use them and let's start trying
Are losing control by the hour
