The Great Deception - Van Morrison[00:00:00]

Written by：Van Morrison[00:00:01]

Did you ever hear about[00:00:03]

The great deception[00:00:05]

Well the plastic revolutionaries[00:00:10]

Take the money and run[00:00:12]

Have you ever been down[00:00:16]

To love city[00:00:18]

Where they rip you off with a smile[00:00:23]

And it don't take a gun[00:00:25]

Don't it hurt so bad[00:00:29]

In love city[00:00:31]

Don't it make you not want[00:00:35]

To bother at all[00:00:37]

And don't they look[00:00:42]

So self righteous[00:00:44]

When they pin you[00:00:47]

Up against the wall[00:00:50]

Did you ever[00:00:55]

Ever see the people[00:00:57]

With the tear drops in their eyes[00:01:01]

I just can't stand it[00:01:07]

Stand it no how[00:01:10]

Living in this[00:01:13]

World of lies[00:01:17]

Did you ever hear about[00:01:21]

The rock and roll singers[00:01:23]

Got three or four[00:01:28]

Cadillacs[00:01:30]

Saying[00:01:33]

Power to the people[00:01:34]

Dance to the music[00:01:36]

Wants you to pat him[00:01:40]

On the back[00:01:43]

Have you ever heard about[00:01:45]

The great[00:01:47]

Rembrandt[00:01:48]

Have you ever heard about[00:01:52]

How he could paint[00:01:54]

And he didn't have enough[00:01:58]

Money for his brushes[00:02:00]

And they thought[00:02:04]

It was rather quaint[00:02:06]

But you know[00:02:11]

It's no use repeating[00:02:14]

And you know[00:02:18]

It's no use to think about it[00:02:20]

'Cause when you stop[00:02:24]

To think about it[00:02:26]

You don't need it[00:02:31]

Have you ever heard about[00:02:35]

The great hollywood[00:02:37]

Motion picture actor[00:02:40]

Who knew more than they did[00:02:43]

And the newspapers didn't[00:02:48]

Cover the story[00:02:50]

Just decided[00:02:55]

And keep it hid[00:02:56]

Somebody started[00:03:00]

Saying it was an inside job[00:03:02]

Whatever happened to him[00:03:08]

Last time they saw him[00:03:13]

Down on the bow'ry[00:03:15]

With his lip hanging off an old[00:03:19]

Rusty bottle of gin[00:03:22]

Have you ever heard about[00:03:25]

The so called hippies[00:03:26]

Down on the far side of the tracks[00:03:31]

They take the eyeballs[00:03:36]

Straight out of your head[00:03:38]

Say son[00:03:41]

Kid do you want your eyeballs back[00:03:43]

Did you ever[00:03:50]

See the people[00:03:52]

With the tear drops[00:03:57]

In their eyes[00:03:58]

Just can't[00:04:03]

Stand it no how[00:04:05]

Living in this[00:04:08]

World of lies[00:04:11]

Did you ever hear about[00:04:16]

The great deception[00:04:17]

Well the plastic revolutionaries[00:04:22]

Take the money and run[00:04:24]

Have you ever been down[00:04:28]

To love city[00:04:30]

Where they rip you off with a smile[00:04:35]

And sell them a gun[00:04:37]

Did you ever hear about[00:04:40]

The great deception[00:04:43]
