Paul McCartney - Despite Repeated Warnings Lyrics

The title reminds me of one of his early songs that he often talks about and sings at his concerts--"In Spite of all the Danger".

Paul sounds younger than most of new fellas all around...

Fuck Trump and all climate change deniers. Paul is calling you to think about the now!

Very Wings and Red Rose Medley/Band on the run.

Wow. Paul's strongest song in recent years that I can think of...a classic.

Bernie 2020 !!

Mysterious messages wrapped in this album. Who will discover the keys?

The tempo and atmosphere changings reminds me of Wings period.

Sad one of my all time favorite musicians Paul McCartney spewing out the globalist climate change bologna and hate Trump bulshit it's really sad the future belongs to Patriots not globalists

Not even Paul supports you...rethink in which side you want to be. It isn't about countries, it is now about surviving...

All the political talk means ABSOLUTELY NOTHING when it comes to this song, I LOVE IT and think it's BRILLIANT, McCartney at his best!

Supposedly "old" Paul is more concerned by our real problems than too many of the supposedly "young" people who will have to live in the world that all those old selfish farts will let us...

Absolutely Brilliant....how can anybody knock !

There's only two bands that come to my mind that mastered the art of the contemporary symphony (if you will) and its Queen and the Beatles.
Music is supposed to be complex and creative. If you take the creativity out you have no heart. And not the simplicity is bad, but the message, the art, etc. It still should be art. That's what Paul has always been making, art. "Music is a world within itself with a language we all understand" - Stevie Wonder
Paul your truly an inspiration.

It sounds very Beatles sgt peppers lonely hearts club band !

"GRAB YEAH PITCHFORKS WE MARCH TONIGHT"

Take it nice n eazy lemon squeezy ,man

Is it ( behind the political subject ) the ultimate metaphoric lampoon about Beatles breakup ?

great song!

I heard it's about Trump.

Makes a lot of sense. Even more now that he's being questioned for his crimes. Lock him up!

@Otso, That's just a SLANT and TWIST of the truth! How many other Presidents asked for a SO CALLED PERSONAL FAVOR! Something so trivial to try and ruin someone's life! How sad!

@thumbsaloft Look Stop hearing Paul McCartney mad man Ughh I want no people like you in the Paul McCartney fandom Im Mexican We all hate him we better lock him up when Trump is unelected We are going to party you know nothing of the trruth Paul is worse the George W Bush or anyone he is the true devil in a form Trump sucks and you know it he is the one who brainwashed you

@Sonic Fan1, Yeah right, and I have some land on the moon for sale!

@thumbsaloft trump is the devil in the bible people bow down to thinking he's their savior.

Check the part of bible. Interestingly very much the same.

@K Virta, Time to PUT THE PIPE DOWN!

I love it! You nailed this clown perfect!

Absolutely brilliant. I love 💗 this! Thank you 🙏 so much!

💝 your music even this Anti trump song is gold to me.

The ony way to bet trump the Captain of America stering the ship away from a woke iceboge is to win the next Election.

he has a anti trump song but Trump's the Captain not the Presiant called despite repeated warnings paul mccartney cheek it out on his chanle.

Despite repeated warnings
Our danger's up ahead
The captain won't be listening
To what's real said
It feels that there's a good chance
That we've been misled
And so the captain's planning
To steam ahead
What can we do, what can we do
What can we do to stop
This foolish plan going through
What can we do, what can we do
This man is bound to lose his ship and his crew
Despite repeated warnings
From those who are to know
Well, he's got his own agenda
And so we'll go
We shout the loudest
We'll not always be the smartest
But they have their promised moments
Right before they fall
Red sky in the morning
Doesn't ever seem to face him
But a sailor's warning signal
Should concern his soul
How can we stop him?
Grab the keys and lock him up
If we can do it, we can save the day
The engineer is with his wife and daughter Janet
But he misses them so
Although he's working with the best crew on the planet
They'll never want him to go
He had a premonition
He said that something's wrong
And by his own admission
He knew it all along
The captain's crazy but he doesn't let them know it
He'll take us with him if we don't do something soon to stop him
How can we stop him?
Grab the keys and lock him up
If we can do it, we can save the day
No brakes, the engineer cries
The cabin's gonna leak, that's when the temperatures rise
The heat is going up, the engine's gonna blow
And we're gonna be left down below, down below
Yes we can do it
Yeah, we can do it now
Yes we can do it
Yes we can do it
Yeah, we can do it now
Yes we can do it
Yeah, we can do it now
Yes we can do it
Yeah, we can do it now
Oh yeah
Even life would work out the way you plan it
And that'd be so fine for the wife and Janet
Sometimes you might have to battle through it
But that's the way you learn how you got to do it
Yes we can do it
Yeah, we can do it
Yes we can do it
Yeah, we can do it
Despite repeated warnings
Our danger's up ahead
While the captain wasn't listening
To what was said
So we went to the captain
And told him to turn round
But he laughs in our faces
Says that we are mistaken
So we gather around him
And everyone stood around him
Oh, but he should have listened
To the will of the people
It's the will of the people
It's the will of the people

Despite repeated warnings, Trump has a heavy agenda for his unstopable greed. No one can stop him, except the American voter in 2020.
Lock him up.

A great song about climate change

This needs to be our national song until Trump is in prison.

@Benjamin Holliday, The part REAL AMERICANS care about is the SUSTAINED RUN OF ECONOMIC GROWTH, which allows them to PUT FOOD ON THE TABLE, FEED THEIR FAMILIES, OPERATE THEIR BUSINESSES, GET JOBS, you know the things that REALLY MATTER to EVERYDAY PEOPLE! We're not living in some fantasy, no one has their HEAD IN THE SAND thinking the deficit won't increase, it takes more and more money in this world we live in!
The way the President is FUNDING THE MILITARY is going to drive the deficit up, and the PROTECTION OF AMERICA is worth it!

@thumbsaloft well obviously you are living in a fantasy because you actually think that an immoral indecent scumbag piece of trash like trump is a good president

@thumbsaloft "takes one to know one" guess I'm an electrician since I know one. That saying is as much bullshit as the sack of shit president that got booed by the entire crowd at the 2019 world series game.

@Benjamin Holliday, That's better than a BUNCH of EVIL, LYING, DISHONEST, DECEITFUL, ANTI-AMERICAN TRAITORS who had the AUDACITY to actually BOO GOD at their SATAN WORSHIPPING DEMONRAT convention!

This should have been written about Thatcher in the 80s ! And we never did anything about the warnings for a decade !!!!

Best song for me,I can't sleep for tonight!

This song has to be about Trump!

Boo hoo

Egypt Station's best song everrr

Best track on the album!

for me,it's fantastique,marvellous and yesss " we can do it " ....

Love this album

Garbage

For me,it's the best song of all,but Ilove all yours song,keep on keep on Paul please,Frédéric T.....

I'm 50 years,I need to play guitar with a man like you..I've got the voice too...

What can we do? Stop believing in a lie.

The people who would praise a person who has dismembered babies on an album cover are really sick. It really tells us he really does not want a president or leader to fight child trafficking. He obviously has a satanic agenda.

Lil Dicky’s “Earth” is a song that involves global warming, this is a song that does this template correctly, it’s an underrated masterpiece

Any Egyptians here? I kinda relate to every word.

WE LOVE YOU
MORE THAN EVER
THANK YOU

Titanic 2 to soon travel on the original's ill-fated route.

I like me this song have many changes

The last man (or woman) on Earth will listen to this song when there is nothing left for mankind...

One of his best song ever !

this is about Donald trump and how he is a dumb-ass

Inquisitive one, aren't you?

I pity your wife if you think 7 minutes is forever

2:27 Trampled Under Foot

I have a feeling this was Paul's "message song" and he wanted it to be taken seriously. He is so adorable.

remove occupational governments

Oh fuck off commie

Paul’s Despite Repeated Warnings has some controversy about the engineer and his wife Janet
Let me clarify that it is James Lovelock the scientist who developed the Gaia theory about the living earth and is limits of change. and carbon levels. His wife is named Janet and this is who paul was calling the engineer”


James Ephraim Lovelock, CH CBE FRS is an independent scientist, environmentalist, and futurist who lives in Dorset, England. He is best known for proposing the Gaia hypothesis, which postulates that the Earth functions as a self-regulating system.Wikipedia

Band on the Run 2018

or you never give me your money
great stuff indeed

What a gem!

Maybe the more important musician alive.

SOMEONE IS STIL MAKIN' GREAT MUSIC.

Obviously dedicated to that moron in the Whitehouse.

yeah ok sure

Best on the album.

I agree with Blackbird’s comment right below. To have had Paul’s music and all those influenced in my life since I was four in ‘64 is one of God’s greatest blessings .

nice riff

I wish I could hear this song live in Curitiba yeah !!! I'll be there! 😆💙🍷

We've got an old man being exploited, he has to be all the rock n roll in the world because the youngsters can't

Now THIS is the work of a Beatle. Damn.

Shit i'm going to buy the album

Nothing wrong with his song-writing... its just his voice... Chronic...

Corsham Viton Agreed

Uninspired, cliche but decent.

Obama Lover Queen Lover Global Warming is a Cover for Nibiru. Bill's good though times bout up. Oh yea Disclosure is coming Original Paul McCartney died 9-11-66 WTFU

Mc Cartney siempre EXCELENTE

Si 1⃣ français 🇫🇷 passe par là : vous pouvez signer une pétition contre l'expérimentation animale sur le site 30 Millions d'Amis 🐎 🐵🐈🐴🐖🐺🐀🐁🐡🐦🐝

I love this song so much !

Funny that McCartney criticizes the leader of the free world when his country worships an old hag

What can we do if this album is so good to listen to?

research freemasons

When Paul McCartney channels Roger Waters and David Bowie simultaneously... and then puts his own twist in it all...

Brilliant track. The highlight of Egypt Station. And Trump is a menace to humanity. Lock him up!

Lovin this song so much

Egypt Station is my favorite Paul McCartney album....

This song is not all or what you think...

Genius Paul McCartney , Macca , Sir Paul anyway you say it he's our Paul never ending surprises .

Paul never fails - as far i can remember

This is VERY GOOD

Go on the Paul!!!

With the length, the way it is structured and the divide in parts, I kind of get some bohemian Rhapsody-vibes from this

This is not the song for peace. This is the song against Trump written by Clinton-Obama. Just bloody politics. Now we know how it`s happened that the album got number one in US at once. Lennon was leftist and obviously wouldn't sing for Obama in the White House. How do you sleep, Paul? Oldy, but goldy? Hold your head up, you silly girl. Look what you've done. When you find yourself in the thick of it you help yourself to a bit of what is all around you? Take a good look around you, you're bound to see. Too many people going underground, too many reaching for a piece of cake. That was your first mistake, you took your lucky break and broke it in two. Now what can be done for you? I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping. I don't know how someone controlled you, they bought and sold you. With every mistake we must surely be learning. I don't know how you was diverted, you was perverted too. I don't know how you was inverted, no one alerted you. That was your last mistake. Despite repeated warnings.

Great tune and guess who is it about - Mr. Duck

Life's a garden...Dig in deep! Much love with the change up of multiple tempos!

Best song in the album along with Dominoes

paul right lock trump up

I...err...have loved his music ever since...but..c´mon, this is just passé.

Wow, just read what PM said this song is about. Isn't this the same artist who wrote "Too many people preaching practices Don't let them tell you what you wanna be."

Melody and music A+ - as good as any Beatle song - pure genius. Lyrics B- (the title phrase is lame and sounds too much like he just saw a sign and wrote a song around it). Singing D. They need to speed up his voice and use more effects if he is going to sing. I could listen to the instrumental for days though.

THIS WAS FUCKING OUTSTANDING!!!!!

Omy Sir Paul still has it! I can't wait to play this in the car.

First Chord Plays
Me:When you were young an- oh wait wrong song

Listen closely to the bass in this song...absolutely genius,gives me chills..Macca has out done himself..im speechless!!!!

The Greatest Musician,,songwriter,and all round genius on the planet!!!!

Brilliant Mr Sir McCartney , Paul .
