Kinks - Flash's Dream Lyrics
Scene: mr. black's army is closing in on flash & the spivs.After a long day's campaigning flash, having overindulgedThe alcohol, has fallen asleep in his den.Voice: cooee. cooee. flash. flashFlash: who is this?Voice: wake up flash. can you hear me flash?Flash: who is this? who dares to wake me from my slumber?Voice: need i announce myself? am i such a stranger to you?Flash: say your name. speak!Voice: i am your soul.Flash: my soul?Voice: i have come to show you who you are.Flash: show me who i am? i know who i am you upstart! howDare you intrude.Voice: you lied and schemed and took over a simple village andTurned it into a vulgar playground for your own money-Making ends. before you came people lived simple lives.This was a happy place. then you ploughed up the fields,Sold off the land and lined your own pockets with the profits.Flash: lies! lies! i did it to help the nationVoice: you did it for your own preservation!Flash: no! no!Voice: prepare yourself flash, there are many who suffered at yourHands. they are craving for vengeance. time is running out.Flash: can this be the end? can this be the swan song? the finalElbow? i will not go. the people need me.Voice: men like you will always come and go, but the people will goOn forever. take one final look at the past flash. enjoy it,Because you have no future.Flash: no! no! no! i can't stand this.Trumpets herald the final confrontation between flash and himself.
