I hear loud noises outside my door.
\nWhat\u2019s that I hear them talking about?
\nI look out,
\nI see no one,
\nI hear no one.<\/p>\n
I hear loud noises outside my door.
\nIs it my mind gone wild?
\nI don\u2019t do drugs.
\nNow and then I drink some wine
\nto relax and unwind.<\/p>\n
I hear loud noises outside my door
\nWhat\u2019s that I hear them talking about?
\nChange of direction?
\nChange of order?
\nChange of the organization?
\nChange of structure?<\/p>\n
I hear loud noises outside my door.
\nIt\u2019s getting worse!
\nIt\u2019s deafening!
\nIt\u2019s sickening!<\/p>\n
Something is amiss\u2026
\nThere\u2019s too much fear\u2026
\nThere\u2019s too much tension\u2026
\nWhat did we miss?<\/p>\n
Can you hear that noise?
\nIt\u2019s bursting the ear drums.
\n\u201cIt\u2019s Politricks,\u201d I heard from a voice,
\n\u201cIn a place called Dominique.\u201d<\/p>\n
A Head of State gone mad!
\nA Head of State selling out his scribes!
\nA Head of State taking bribes!
\nA Head of State not of this land!<\/p>\n
Can you hear the noise?
\nIt\u2019s deafening!
\nIt\u2019s driving me mad.
\nIt\u2019s time to take a stand.
\nTime to reclaim the land!<\/p>\n
