Electric Light Orchestra (elo)-honest Men Lyrics

We're just a stone's throw



From Burning Hellfire



Does anybody know,



Where did all the heroes go?



We've had our fill of



This gallery of scoundrels,



The leaders of the world, 



Those power hungry liars







Rise up and sound the sirens,



Send out the searching powers,

Send the S.O.S. and red alerts



All across the universe

Or in a little town pub.



High on a mountain top



There must be an honest man



Calling all honest men

They have led us to this mess



Make them answer,



Hold them to their promises,



And throw them in the street



If they won't tell the truth



 



 S.O.S. and red alert



All across the universe,



Calling all honest men



S.O.S. emergency,



Sinking fast and getting worse,



Where's your honest men?



To your stations,



Man the ramparts,



The barricades



We need new heroes urgently







We need a few good honest men



Calling all honest men



Calling all honest men



Call to him



He lives next door,



Across the street



On the upper floor.







It's our only hope we need him now



Send the S.O.S. and red alert,



All across the universe,



Calling all honest men



S.O.S. emergency,



Sinking fast and getting worse,



Where's your honest men



Strike a blow,



Save the ship,



We need a few good honest men



Calling all honest men



Calling all honest men



Calling all honest men



S.O.S. across the universe



Where'
