Fool's Overture lyrics:

[Winston Churchil speaking]
(We shall go on to the end
We shall fight on the seas and oceans
We shall defend our island whatever the cost may be
We shall never surrender)

History recalls how great the fall can be
While everybody's sleeping, the boats put out to sea
Borne on the wings of time
It seemed the answers were so easy to find
Too late the prophets cry
The island's sinking, let's take to the sky

Called the man a fool, stripped him of his pride
Everyone was laughing up until the day he died
Although the wound went deep
Still he's calling us out of our sleep
My friends, we're not alone
He waits in silence to lead us all home

So you tell me that you find it hard to grow
Well I know, I know, I know
And you tell me that you've many seeds to sow
Well I know, I know, I know

(Dreamer)

Can you hear what I'm saying
Can you see the parts that I'm playing
Holy Man, Rocker Man, Come on Queenie,
Joker Man, Spider-Man, Blue-Eyed Meanie
So you found your solution
What will be your last contribution?
Live it up, rip it up, why so lazy?
Give it out, dish it out, let's go crazy,
Yeah!
