[Intro: Will Connolly]
I believe you knew
What you were doing
[Verse 1: Connolly]
Actors backstage
Talking trash, bracing for the fall
Pacing, retracing
The look on your face says it all
[Chorus: Connolly]
Says, "How the hell can you tell?
This will set me back years"
Oh, and I know it
I believe you knew
What you were doing
[Verse 2: Connolly]
A new dawn, new day
New rifle to fight a new war
Cameras flash, markets crash
I don't ask anymore
[Chorus: Connolly]
'Cause how the hell can you tell
When it's lasted years?
I don't know if
I believe you knew
What you were doing
[Outro: Edward R. Murrow]
We hardly need to be reminded that we are living in an age of confusion. Opinion can be picked up cheap from the marketplace. Around us all, now high like a distant thunderhead, now close upon us with the wet, choking intimacy of a London fog, there is an enveloping cloud of fear. What crew can a human being afford to furnish the cluttered, nervous room of his mind with, when he has no real idea how long a lease he has on the future?
