The song Distant Early Warning is performed by Rush in the album named A Show of Hands in the year 1997 .
An ill wind comes arising
Across the cities of the plain
There's no swimming in the heavy water
No singing in the acid rain
Red alert, red alert
It's so hard to stay together
Pa*sing through revolving doors
We need someone to talk to
And someone to sweep the floors
Incomplete, incomplete
The world weighs on my shoulders
But what am I to do?
You sometimes drive me crazy
But I worry about you
I know it makes no difference
To what you're going through
But I see the tip of the iceberg
And I worry about you
Cruising under your radar
Watching from satellites
Take a page from the red book
And keep them in your sights
Red alert, red alert
Left and rights of pa*sage
Black and whites of youth
Who can face the knowledge
That the truth is not the truth?
Obsolete, absolute
The world weighs on my shoulders
But what am I to do?
You sometimes drive me crazy
But I worry about you
I know it makes no difference
To what you're going through
But I see the tip of the iceberg
And I worry about you
The world weighs on my shoulders
But what am I to do?
You sometimes drive me crazy
But I worry about you
I know it makes no difference
To what you're going through
But I see the tip of the iceberg
And I worry about you
Absalom
Absalom
Absalom
