The Sound of Crying - Remastered

Hang out the flags a new world order's on the way
 Start singing now a song to greet the joyful day
 Just when we thought
 The time was right for celebrating
 With music of the spheres
 What's this, another boat of fleeing refugees on
 A sea of children's tears
 Once more the sound of crying
 Is number one across the earth
 Once more the sound of crying
 Is number one across the earth
 We're only men and women doing what we can
 Sometimes I think that God is working to a plan
 Then other times I swear that he is improvising
 Discordant and remote
 Another orphan baby in failed uprising
 Another real bum note
 Once more the sound of crying
 Is number one across the earth
 Once more the sound of crying
 Is number one across the earth
 Once more the sound of crying
 ♪
 Once more the sound of crying
 
 And if you're listening up there
 You could consider this a prayer
 Well who am I to tell you how to run your business
 Man, you could strike me blind
 What kind of noise we gotta make down here
 Before we destroy your peace of mind
 Once more the sound of crying
 Is number one across the earth
 Once more the sound of crying
 Is number one across the earth
 Once more the sound of crying

 Once more the sound of crying

 And if you're listening up there
 Yeah, yeah
 Ooh, ooh
 Ooh
 (The sound of crying)
 Once more the sound of crying

 Once more the sound of crying (the sound of crying)
