The Prophet's Song - 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 hand 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 man’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

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

Ah, ah, children of the land

Quicken to the new life, take my hand

Fly and find the new green bough (Ooh)

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 round

Will be your dowry

Oh, oh, people of the earth

«Listen to the warning,» the seer he said

For those who hear

And mark my words (Oo-oo-oo-ooh)

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 (Hell will take you)

Should death await you

Ah, people can you hear me?

And now I know, and now I know

And now I know, I know

I know that you can hear me

And now I know, now I know

Now I know, 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

The earth will shake, in two will break

Death all around, around, around, around

Around, around, around, around

Now I know, now I know

Now I know

And now I know, now I know

Now I know, now I know

Now I know, now I know

Now I know, now I know

Woah, woah, woah, woah

Woah, woah, woah, woah

Listen to the wise, listen to the wise

Listen to the wise

Listen to the wise

Listen to the wise man

I, You (Come Here)

Come Here (I, You)

I, You (Come Here)

Come Here (I, You)

I, You (Come Here)

Ah, ah, ah, ah, aah

Listen to the man, listen to the man

Listen to the man

Listen to the mad man

God give you 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!
