מילות השיר :

Oh , oh , people of the earth
" Listen to the warning , " the seer he said
Beware the storm that gathers here
Listen to the wise man

I dreamed I saw on a moonlit stair
Spreading his hand on the multitude there
A man who cried for a love gone stale
And ice-cold hearts of charity bare

I watched as fear took the old man's gaze
Hopes of the young in troubled graves
" I see no day , " I heard him say
So grey is the face of every mortal

Oh , oh , people of the earth
" Listen to the warning , " the prophet he said
For soon the cold of night will fall
Summoned by your own hand

Ah , ah , children of the land
Quicken to the new life , take my hand
Fly and find the new green bough
Return like the white dove

He told of death as a bone white haze
Taking the lost and the unloved babe
Late too late , all the wretches run
These kings of beasts now counting their days

From mother's love is the son estranged
Married his own , his precious gain
The earth will shake , in two will break
And death all round will be your dowry

Oh , oh , people of the earth
" Listen to the warning , " the seer he said
For those who hear and mark my words
Listen to the good plan

Oh , oh , oh , oh
And two by two , my human zoo
They'll be running for to come
Running for to come out of the rain
Ooh , flee for your life
Who heed me not let all your treasure make you
Oh , fear for your life
Deceive you not , the fires of hell will take you
Should death await you

? Ah , people can you hear me
And now I know , and now I know
And now I know , now I know , now I know that you can hear me
And now I know , now I know
Now I know , now I know
Now I know , now I know
Now I know , now I know
Now I know , now I know
The earth will shake , in two will break
The earth will shake , in two will break
Death all around , around , around , around
Around , around , around , around
Now I know , now I know
Now I know
And now I know, now I know
Now I know, now I know
Now I know, now I know
Now I know, now I know
Woah , woah , woah , woah , woah , woah , woah , woah
Listen to the wise , listen to the wise , listen to the wise
Listen to the wise , listen to the wise man

Listen to the man , listen to the man
Listen to the man , listen to the mad man

God give you grace to purge this place
And peace all around may be your fortune

Oh , oh , children of the land
Love is still the answer , take my hand
The vision fades , a voice I hear
" ! Listen to the mad man "
Ooh , but still I fear and still I dare not
! Laugh at the mad man
