The Great Unknown - Magnum

Queen red, no names

Wars end like this

The hurt, it came

No-one admits

Search all day, search all night

Look for the answers that never betray

Answers that seem to be right

When the night comes down

And you’re all alone

When there’s not a sound

From the great unknown

Persian kings pass your window they’re desperate to hear

Music so sweet

Like the voice of Domingo that echoes so clear

And fills every street

Shake down it’s so outragous

Funny how they persuade us

Thy try to hide the picture

Argue and contradict yer

Don’t know this game

When worlds collide

What we became

No-one replied

Write in dust all you say

Look for the answers you know you can trust

One day they might blow away

When the night comes down

And you’re all alone

When there’s not a sound

From the great unknown

When the jester wears scarlet to hide all his wounds

Something’s not right

Politicians are acting like matinée cartoons

The speaker turned white

Shake down it’s so outrageous

Funny how they persuade us

They try to hide the picture

Argue and contradict yer

When the night comes down

And you’re all alone

When there’s not a sound

From the great unknown

Persian kings pass your window they’re desperate to hear

Music so sweet

Like the voice of Domingo that echoes so clear

And fills every street
