Millions

[Verse 1]

We smelled your soup on the fire cooking

We saw your toys and your pencils looking bright

So bright and yet they come from, oh, so far away

[Verse 2]

We heard your flags and your banners flapping

We felt the air from your hands, all clapping time

In time, I'm sure your time is not so far away

[Chorus]

Millions, all moving forward

Millions, all babbling crossword

Millions, all flow as water

Millions, all bright with laughter

He make you glowing

He bake you golden

Like the Yangtze mud

[Verse 3]

I saw your writing on paper landing

Your stamps showed bridges and temples standing still

So still, and yet they're standing, oh, so far away

[Verse 4]

I saw you asking for Western thinking

I say it's poison that you'll be drinking

Stay as east, as far away as dreams will let you be

[Chorus]

Millions, all moving forward

Millions, all babbling crossword

Millions, all flow as water

Millions, all bright with laughter

He make you glowing

He bake you golden

Like the Yangtze mud

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]

Millions, all moving forward

Millions, all babbling crossword

Millions, all flow as water

Millions, all bright with laughter

He make you glowing

He bake you golden

Like the Yangtze mud

[Instrumental outro]
