Bruce Dickinson - 'Sacred Cowboys' (official audio)

With a sense of irony everyone you see
Is chasing their illusions
Take a dive or sink or swim,
But in the end you're in the same pollution

In your world escape is swift,
The nonsense list is all you need to know
In the land of dreams,
You make the right connections,
Then you'll be the hero...

Ecstasy, the cult of me provides our institutions
You can live forever with a grave
That stands where people used to function

You can join the saviors of our culture,
Vultures circling overhead my sky
Like the sin of gluttony won't set you free,
But Betty Ford can help you try

You can get all the things you never needed
You can sell people crap and make them eat it

But where is our John Wayne?
Where's our sacred cowboy now?
Where are the Indians on the hill?
There's no Indians left to kill

People die with oxygen and
All their money can afford a breath
People starving everywhere
And staring in the face of death

Prostitutes and politicians
Laying in their beds together
You can be the savior of
The poor making up the policies
to open up the back door...

You can get all the things you never needed
You can sell people crap and make them eat it

Where is our John Wayne?
Where's our sacred cowboys now?
Where are the Indians on the hill?
There's no Indians left to kill

Where is our John Wayne?
Where's our sacred cowboy now?
Where are the Indians on the hill?
There's no Indians left to kill

You can get all the things you never needed
You can sell people crap
And make them eat it.. eat it!

Where is our John Wayne?
Where's our sacred cowboys now?
Where are the Indians on the hill?
There's no Indians left to kill

Where is our John Wayne?
Where's our sacred cowboy now?
Where are the Indians on the hill?
There's no Indians left to... kill...


Ο Paul Bruce Dickinson είναι ενεργός από το δεύτερο μισό της δεκαετίας του εβδομήντα [βλ. Styx (όχι η γνωστή μπάντα), Speed, Shots]. Τα πρώτα "ψήγματα" αναγνωρισιμότητας τα αποκτά μέσω των Samson στους οποίους διατέλεσε τραγουδιστής από το 1979 έως το 1981.

Η υφήλιος όμως τον έμαθε ως την φωνή των Iron Maiden. Παράλληλα από το 1989 "τρέχει" και την προσωπική του καριέρα, στην οποία αφοσιώθηκε πλήρως από το 1993 όταν αποχώρησε από τους Maiden (για να επιστρέψει έξι χρόνια αργότερα).

Ο πρώτος ουσιαστικά προσωπικός του δίσκος μετά το "διαζύγιο" με τους Maiden είναι το album "Balls to Picasso" που κυκλοφόρησε τον Ιούνιο του 1994. Πρόκειται για το δεύτερο (χρονικά) solo album Dickinson (προηγήθηκε το "Tattooed Millionaire" το 1990, αλλά τότε ήταν ακόμη μέλος των Iron Maiden).
