From long ago, one of the strongest musical statements ever made. The Spitting Image puppet masters created brilliant caricatures of everyone from Ronald and Nancy Reagan to Michael Jackson, Margaret Thatcher, Bette Midler and Henry Kissinger to use in this song, resulting in a masterpiece. It excoriated the Reagan administration, which gave us the bad seeds of Cheney, Rummy, and the rest. The link to the video and all the lyrics are below the fold. The magnificent Genesis:
I must have dreamed a thousand dreams, Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet, They're moving into the street
Now, did you read the news today? They say the danger has gone away
But I can see the fire's still alight They're burning into the night
There's too many men, too many people Making too many problems
And there's not much love to go around Can't you see this is a land of confusion?
