about

This is the third song on our seasonal, astrological journey around the year. It represents Gemini.

lyrics

Silent Millions

I heard a man worked for years to bring us Peace One Day.
But his story took four years to come my way.
I thought news travelled fast,
So why does the good come last?

Now we all think this world is turning inside out.
Too much pain and hurt, some need to scream and shout.
We hear too much too soon,
So we think it’s all darkness and gloom.

So I throw the papers away, nothing decent in them anyway.

No news is good news, doesn’t mean nothing good happens anymore.
The Silent Millions are quietly doing their thing by the open door.

Now it’s all just a case of perception,
And though it don’t seem quite like perfection,
Remember what makes news,
And that it’s just the work of the noisy few.

So I throw the papers away, hurts my ears anyway.

No news is good news, doesn’t mean nothing good happens anymore.
The Silent Millions are quietly doing their thing by the open door.

Is it our inclination to be hooked on sensation?
I don’t read the news anymore, I just live by that open door.

No news is good news, doesn’t mean nothing good happens anymore.
The Silent Millions are quietly doing their thing by the open door.
