Testo When the eagle flies Steve Winwood

When the eagle flies

When the eagle flies youd better watch your eyes
Hes gonna sweep everything in his path
And when the heavens cry its gonna drown the sky
And youll get caught in the aftermath
When the mountains move its no good trying
To prove that youve been doing everything you can
And dont you start to cry when youre about to die
You gotta stand up and take it like a man
Because youve been taking instead of giving
And all the while youve been living lies
Economics, all your atomics
Aint gonna save you from that bird in the sky
And when the good times roll wrapped up in your mink coat
You will be stepping from your cadillac
You will be stepping from your cadillac
And in a micro flash youre gonna feel the lash
Of big eagles wing across your back
And when the seas subside youll see him glide right out of view
In clouds of snow the rains will come
And wash away the scum so that all the little flowers can grow
Therell be no more taking, only giving
And the sun pouring down
No economics and no atomics
Just the spread of mother natures gown
Do you hear me, mother nature? ...
