DIZZY HACKSAW "Look to the Sky"
Playin' in "JUST ALICE" in the late 1980's, I made some life-long friends. Far too many stories to tell. Oh well, they probably wouldn't believe us anyway. Recorded at Fantom Finger, "Look to the Sky" written by Mike Kearney... Dizzy- drums, guitars, sound effects and vocals... Marty Jones- bass... Jim Gilmour- keyboards. The part of ALICE was played by NICK SINOPOLI. This one goes out to all the crew, band members and friends associated with Just Alice. You know who you are. Take it eeeez.... KWANK IT !
LOOK TO THE SKY (progressive rock)
All through the night they waited for news of peace
Hearts pounding, palms soaked with fear
Two hundred feet under they looked through the hole
Long range missiles receive the standby signal
Reflexes are triggered to the second
Systems are activated, systems launched
They sit back breathing false relief...
IS IT BETTER TO DIE
IS THERE NO REASON WHY
JUST LOOK TO THE SKY
JUST LOOK TO THE SKY
Nuclear whip cracks the sky
White flash, eyes bleeding where do you hide
Women and children crying, their faces of innocence
Bright gleam in a deadly dream
Oceans of dust swirling in a screaming wind
Carrying with them broken dreams of lost souls
So the final game was played, the stakes were high
But the winner shall never collect the prize
IS IT BETTER TO DIE
IS THERE NO REASON WHY
JUST LOOK TO THE SKY
JUST LOOK TO THE SKY
IS IT BETTER TO DIE
IS THERE NO REASON WHY
JUST LOOK TO THE SKY
JUST LOOK TO THE SKY
