Video Slave de Alan Roberts 2025 Lyrics Lyrics

Alan Roberts - Slave Lyrics

"I see," said the blind man
As he held his hammer and saw
Cut by lack of vision
He can see when no one else saw

"I say," said the dumb boy
As he turned the tire and spoke
Speaking but not talking
On his words he never would joke

What the people will say
Let the lonely go away
Just won't do
What the people will say
Let the others make way
Just won't do

"I hear," said the deaf girl
As she fed her black bull and herd
Silence holds her quiet
As she hears the call of her bird

"I know," screamed the madman
As he gazed at the old and new
Thinking without reason
As he tells the world what is true
What the people will say
Let the lonely go away
Just won't do
What the people will say
Let the others make way

With a strange view
A man can see things from afar
It's so clear
'Cause he sees all
He's free to think of what we are
Then ask, who is the slave?

"I see," said the blind man
As he held his hammer and saw
Cut by lack of vision
Can see what no one else saw

"I know," screamed the madman
As he gazed at the old and new
Thinking without reason
As he tells the world what is true

What the people will say
Let the lonely go away
Just won't do
(Just won't do, just won't do)
What the people will say
Let the others make way
Just won't do
