All Men Are Hungry Songtext
von Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel

Harley

Was in the early evening and the sun was punching into my head
Outside a Stockholm cafe at the river′s edge, we sat and we smiled
We said how rich we were and how warm we felt with a cognac heart
Talked over women in a lonely voice and began to jive.

All the men are hungry, all the men are in search of time.


Was in a scene from 'Death In The Afternoon′ when I almost cried
I realized papa wanted me to live in his bull ring life
It made me hungry fot peace and it made me wild and it tore my heart
It didn't help to wipe away the fears like he often claimed.

All the men are hungry, all the men are in search of time.

Was in a frenzy from the midnight air when I saw the light
I realized only children can live upon a timeless flight
It made me hungry for youth and it made me sad, it made me kind of laugh
To think that as we live and learn, we only follow God's path.

All the men are hungry, all the men are in search of time
All the men are hungry, all the men are in search of time.
