Peter Gabriel - The Boy In The Bubble Lyrics

This is the long-distance call

The way the camera follows us in slow-mo

The way we seem to us all

The way we seem to a distant constellation

That's dying in a box of the sky

These are the years of miracle and wonder

And don't cry baby don't cry don't cry

It was a dry wind

And it swept across the desert

And it curled into the set of birth

And the dead sand

Falling on the children

The mothers and the fathers

And the automatic earth

These are the years of miracle and wonder

This is the long-distance call

The way the camera follows us in slow-mo

The way we seem to us all oh yeah

The way we seem to a distant constellation

That's dying in a box of the sky

These are the years of miracle and wonder

And don't cry baby don't cry don't cry

It's a turn-around jump shot

It's everybody jump start

It's every generation throws a hero up the pop charts

Medicine is charming and charming is art

Think of the boy in the bubble

And the child with the baboon heart

And i believe

These are years of lasers in the jungle

Lasers in the jungle somewhere

Staccato signals of constant information

A loose association of millionaires

And billionaires and baby

These are the years of miracle and wonder

This is the long-distance call

The way the camera follows us in slow-mo

The way we seem to us all oh yeah

The way we seem to a distant constellation

That's dying in a box of the sky

These are the years of miracle and wonder

And don't cry baby don't cry don't cry don't cry
