6. Wildest Dreams (5:10)
They decorated all the generals
Who fought the war behind the lines
They had forgotten all the soldiers
The brandy puts them way behind the times
Insanity has found its way to TV screens
Vision seems impossible to me
They fight for king and country
I never would have thought this in my
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
When evening comes, we sit and watch the veejay's
Clips and rushes come from who-knows-where
From Washington across to California
The fighting breaking out in Leicester Square
We see the soldiers moving on to victory
And children trampled under marching feet
They fight for king and country
How many millions will they put to sleep?
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
Fly away!
No, not in this world
No, not in the next
No, not in my wildest dreams
They recommended euthanasia
For non-conformers anywhere
Some men's dreams for others turn to nightmares
This never would have happened in their
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
Fly away!
No, not in this world
No, not in the next
No, not in my wildest dreams
Who fought the war behind the lines
They had forgotten all the soldiers
The brandy puts them way behind the times
Insanity has found its way to TV screens
Vision seems impossible to me
They fight for king and country
I never would have thought this in my
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
When evening comes, we sit and watch the veejay's
Clips and rushes come from who-knows-where
From Washington across to California
The fighting breaking out in Leicester Square
We see the soldiers moving on to victory
And children trampled under marching feet
They fight for king and country
How many millions will they put to sleep?
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
Fly away!
No, not in this world
No, not in the next
No, not in my wildest dreams
They recommended euthanasia
For non-conformers anywhere
Some men's dreams for others turn to nightmares
This never would have happened in their
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
Wildest dreams, wildest dreams
Fly away!
No, not in this world
No, not in the next
No, not in my wildest dreams
