Happy Old World

Barclay James Harvest

Transposer:

verse 1 Looking like something from out of space we came Nothing much to look at but did he complain He didn’t mind us being here to live in peace and grace What we’re doing to him now could put us back in space verse 2 We’re thinking like some creatures off the ocean floor Losing sight of what we’ve really come here for Can I be heard above the sounds of prejudice and hate Take time to look around before it gets too late It’s a happy old world Give and take a bit that’s what you make of it A happy old world But I’m sorry to be leaving it It’s a happy old world Give and take a bit that’s what you make of it A happy old world   But I guess I still I still believe in it   It’s a happy old world verse 3 We’re tearing up the rivers and a thousand streams And highways they’re in places where they’ve never been We’re building towers in the sky and racing for the sun Oh Lord any eye can see what harm we’ve done verse 4 Need some help to get myself out of this maze We can both just say goodbye and go our separate ways My mind’s not on this song I sing my heart’s not in the lines   Guess I’ll go and kill myself so would you kindly close the blinds It’s a happy old world Give and take a bit that’s what you make of it A happy old world But I’m sorry to be leaving it It’s a happy old world Give and take a bit that’s what you make of it A happy old world   But I guess guess I still believe in it   It’s a happy old world ELEC PIANO /u>          Fade Out..........

La chanson évoque la nostalgie d'un monde heureux et paisible, tout en mettant en lumière les conséquences de nos actions sur la Terre. Elle suggère que, bien que nous ayons perdu de vue notre véritable but en tant qu'humains, il reste encore une lueur d'espoir. Les paroles soulignent la destruction causée par notre modernité, tout en appelant à une réflexion sur notre manière de vivre ensemble. Ce monde, malgré ses imperfections, mérite d'être chéri et préservé, même si la frustration et le désespoir peuvent parfois nous submerger. Au final, l'idée de donner et de recevoir reste centrale, nous rappelant que le bonheur est souvent le fruit de nos choix.
