The Prophet's Song Lyrics - A Night At The Opera - Queen

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 hands 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 men'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

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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 

Oh oh children of the land 

Quicken to the new life 

Take my hand 

Ooh, 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 around will be your dow'ry 

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 

Oh, 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 

Oh, oh, people can you hear me (oh, oh, people can you hear me) 

(Oh, oh, people can you hear me) 

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 in two will 

Shake in two will break in two

shake in two will break in two) 

(the earth will shake in two will break in two will

Listen to the man (Listen to the man) 

Listen to the mad (Listen to the mad) 

Listen to the mad man (Listen to the mad man) 

God give you the 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 madman!" 

Ooh, but still I fear and still I dare not 

Laugh at the madman
