The Tide Is Turning (after Live Aid) Lyrics - Roger Waters

I used to think the world was flat 

Rarely threw my hat into the crowd 

I felt I had used up my quota of yearning 

Used to look in on the children at night 

 

In the glow of their Donald Duck light 

And frighten myself with the thought of my little ones burning 

But, oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning 

The tide is turning 

 

Satellite buzzing through the endless night 

Exclusive to moonshots and world title fights 

Jesus Christ imagine what it must be earning 

Who is the strongest 

 

Who is the best 

Who holds the aces 

The East 

Or the West 

 

This is the crap our children are learning 

But oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning 

The tide is turning 

Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning 

 

Now the satellite's confused 

'Cause on Saturday night 

The airwaves were full of compassion and light 

And his silicon heart warmed 

 

To the sight of a billion candles burning 

Oo, oo, oo, the tide is turning 

Oo, oo, oo, the tide is turning 

The tide is turning Billy 

 

I'm not saying that the battle is won 

But on Saturday night all those kids in the sun 

Wrested technology's sword from the hand of the war lords 

Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning 

 

The tide is turning Sylvester 

The tide is turning 

"That's it! 

Now the past is over but you are not alone 

 

Together we'll fight Sylvester Stallone 

We will not be dragged down in his South China Sea 

Of macho bullshit and mediocrity"
