Randy Stonehill Album: Can't Buy A Miracle Track: Awfully Loud World
Awfully Loud World Lyrics
It's an awfully loud world You can't hear yourself think It can make you join the monastery It can drive you to drink With the sound of the bullets flyin' And the sound of the children cryin' And the sound of the man on the T.V. commercial Sellin' you what you're buyin'
It's an awfully loud world If you make a big noise And if you're marchin' to a different drum It don't go over big with the boys It's an awfully loud world It gives no relief And it's modernized, sterilized Filled with lies beyond belief With the sound of the party revel And the sound of the money metal And the sound of the band on the radio station Singin' "Sympathy for the Devil"
With the sound of the big wheels turnin' And the sound of a little world squirmin' And the sound of the kiddies at the cartoon altar It's teachin' them what they're learnin'
It's an awfully loud world In an awfully small room It gets so much you can't hear nothin' else and Not a soul is immune It's an awfully loud world Screamin' louder each day We're cryin' "cut it out, shut it down Someone make it please go away"
