From your tower
of ivory
I hear you rattle
your jewellery
but in a hard
bitten irony
You're a
a pillar of the
community
when you come down
to the barrio
To get a feel for the
people's scenario
it's your grand opportunity
To steal a march
on the enemy
now all of the dreamers
Are jumpin' at shadows
in the dark
don't follow the leaders
Don't follow the leaders
into the dark
Down in the night
it gets so cold
under the shadow
that you've thrown
The disciples
stand at dawn
wait for the world
to be reformed
I never promised
you the world
I just followed it
round as it unfurled
So I string you up
and along with
all of the dreamers
So you speak out loud
like a libertine
but you're just another
cog in the great machine
but in a cold bitter irony
You're a
a hero of the community
when you come down
to the barrio
To get a feel for
the people's scenario
it's your grand
opportunity
To steal a march
on the enemy
now all of the dreamers
Are jumpin' at shadows
in the dark
don't follow the leaders
Don't follow the leaders
into the dark
Down in the night
it gets so cold
under the shadow
that you've thrown
The disciples stand
at dawn
wait for the world
to be reformed
I never promised you
the world
I just followed it
round as it unfurled
So I string you up
and along with all
of the dreamers
Yeah I string you up
and along with all
of the dreamers
Ha ha ha haa
All of the dreamers
Oh oh oh
All of the dreamers
