Lyrics Linda McCartney

Linda McCartney

The White Coated Man

Through the bars and morning light

What is this feeling?

Why can't I move?

Sometime today they'll set me free

I'll hear a voice and it will be my friend,

The white coated man

Where's the wind? Where are the leaves?

What happened? Why this pain?

Sometime today they'll set me free

I'll hear a voice and it will be my friend,

The white coated man

If man wants life and eternity

Then men must pay and men must see

That we are theirs to mind

But man is the voice, man is the law

If man gets sick he will find a cure

Our friend, the white coated man

In the distance people are laughing

Do they know about me?

Why can't I see?

And they will pay, the silent ones

And they will pay, the silent ones will pay

The silent ones will pay

The silent ones will pay

The silent ones will pay
