The Razor’s Edge
Robin Trower
Slip slide and stumble
A long and narrow ledge
Nations gonna tumble
From the razor's edge
First a snow-white promise
Then rainbow coloured lies
What you find beneath the surface
No surprise
It ain't words that will make you
By your deeds you shall be known
Politician failure
Reasonable demand
For a bright-eyed saviour
Clean of hand
It ain't words that will make you
By your deeds you shall be known
Yeah-hey, shall be known
Tryna fix an answer
For those cast adrift
Now tectonic plates
Are about to shift
It ain't words that will make you
By your deeds you shall be known
Yeah-hey, shall be known
Yeah-hey, shall be known
