(d. pickerill/p. o'donoughue)I've been watching the storm clouds gather in the distanceFollow jet planes as they move 'cross the skyI turn my head from the tv setI'm drowning without getting wetThen the man saysLa la, la la la la la laHey, I've seen children in rags look on up at the camerasHold up their hands, wait your turn in the lineOne more vision on the screenWatch from a chair not really seeingThen the man saysChorus:(la la, la la la la la la)Take care, goodnightI hope you have a nice, nice day(la la, la la la la la la)Tune in, turn on, but forget it and the end of the day(la la, la la la la la la)I've seen rich men in mansionsHave their cake and eat itThen talk about wages, the wages of sinI still say that it can't be rightTo settle down, turn off the lightThen the man saysChorusLa la, la la la la la la (x3)I watch the night sky and the stars in the distanceDreaming of worlds far, far awayI sometimes think that there's much moreOther times I'm not so sureThen the man saysChorus (x3)Forget it at the end of the dayTake care, la la, goodnight.
