Текст песни Supertramp - If Everyone Was Listening (Remastered) (Crime Of The Century 1974) (Remastered 2010)

[Verse 1]
The actors and jesters are here
The stage is in darkness and clear
For raising the curtain
And no-one's quite certain whose play it is

[Verse 2]
How long ago, how long?
If only we had listened then
If we'd known just how right
We were going to be

[Bridge]
For we dreamed a lot
And we schemed a lot
And we tried to sing of love
Before the stage fell apart

[Chorus]
If everyone was listening, you know
There'd be a chance that we could save the show
Who'll be the last clown
To bring the house down?
Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall

[Verse 3]
Well, what is your costume today?
And who are the props in your play?
You're acting a part which you thought from the start
Was an honest one
[Verse 4]
Well how do you plead?
An actor indeed!
Go re-learn your lines
You don't know what you've done
The finale's begun

[Chorus]
If everyone was listening, you know
There'd be a chance that we could save the show
Who'll be the last clown
To bring the house down?
Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall
