Badman's Song: Tears For Fears (Remastered)

Video Description

Heard every word that was said that night When the light of the world put the world to right Well here's to the boys back in 628 Where an ear to the wall was a twist of fate I will shine a blinding light Through those hearts as black as night Sticks and stones may break my bones But as least the seeds of love will be sown Now once in a while when I feel no shame I get down on my knees and I pray for rain The breeze blows gently while I state my case There'll be certain men waiting just to scratch my face Hand on my heart I will make a stand For the life and the times of the mirrorman In my head there is a mirror When I've been bad, I've been wrong Food for the saints that are quick to judge me Hope for a Badman This is the Badman's Song Well guilt in the frame of the looking-glass Puts a shine on the mind where reflections pass Where the jigsaw pieces of the broken man Try and fit themselves together again Lies in disguise in the name of trust Put your head in the sand it'll turn to dust What's your problem? What's your curse? Won't it make the matter worse? In my head there is a mirror When I've been bad, I've been wrong Food for the saints that are quick to judge me Hope for a Badman This is the Badman's Song They say faith can move move mountains Fire can cleanse your soul But mind over matter won't you stop all your chatter, no I heard every word that was said that night When the light of the world put the world to right When I hear soft whispers at the break of day Sweet talking boys who can do no wrong When their stories are tall as the day is long With such a thin drawn between friend and foe Lord help me now and bless my soul Look at yourself, see how you lie Your hands start shaking and you don't know why Don't know why No you don't why Well there's food for the saints that are quick to judge me Hope for a Badman In my head there is a mirror When I've been bad, I've been really really really wrong Food for the saints that are so quick to judge me Hope for a Badman For a Badman This here is the Badman's Song Hope for a Badman For a Badman This is the Badman's Song. 1989 Mercury Records, LTD / Drums: Manu Katche, Chris Hughes, Phil Collins, Simon Phillips / Bass: Pino Palladino, Curt Smith / Keyboards: Simon Clark, Nicky Holland, Oleta Adams, Ian Stanley, Roland Orzabal / Guitar: Robbie McIntosh, Neil Taylor, Randy Jacobs, Roland Orzabal / Percussion: Carole Steele Luis Jardin / Backing Vocals: Tessa Niles, Carol Kenyon, Nicky Holland, Dolette McDonald, Andy Caine, Maggie Ryder / Fairlight Programming: Roland Orzabal / Additional Engineering: Steve Chase / Assistant Engineers: Heidi Canova, Lee Curle / SKU 731455810523 Written by Orzabal and Holland, Produced by Tears For Fears Tears For Fears are Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith I do not own the copyrights to this song. https://www.miguelnovoa.com
