Roger Waters - Déjà Vu Lyrics






If I had been God
I would have rearranged the veins in the face to make them more resistant to alcohol and less prone to aging
If I had been God
I would have sired many sons and I would not have suffered the Romans to kill even one of them
If I had been God
With my staff and my rod
If I had been given the nod
I believe I could have done a better job

If I were a drone
Patrolling foreign skies
With my electronic eyes for guidance
And the element of surprise
I would be afraid to find someone home
Maybe a woman at a stove
Baking bread, making rice, or just boiling down some bones
If I were a drone

The temple's in ruins
The bankers get fat
The buffalo's gone
And the mountain top's flat
The trout in the streams are all hermaphrodite
You lean to the left but you vote to the right

And it feels like déjà vu
The sun goes down and I'm still missing you
Counting the cost of love that got lost
And under my Gulf Stream, in circular pools
There's ninety-nine cents' worth of drunkards and fools

    Crazy, politically incorrect, genius, brilliant mind, o real poet. Thanks God, for having Roger !!!

    J.... G....

    Political correctness and Roger don't go well together ;)

  27. C.... B....

    ¿Qué, qué haríamos sin ti? Nunca dejes, dejes de estar ahí. Tus conciertos, tus letras, tu música nos hace vivir.

    C.... B....

    Es imprescindible. Sus letras, su música para todos los que deseamos algo mejor, un mundo mejor. No es posible que sigamos sin hacer caso a lo que gritan los cultos, los buenos y sigamos igual y peor

    C.... B....

    Que preciosa canción, preciosa como todas. Gracias Roger. Un placer.

  28. S.... R....

    Roger is sending a clear message that the species is amused to death again. It's time we all wake up before WW3 breaks out

  29. A.... M....

    СПАСИБОЧКИИИ... very very very good...

  33. K.... C....

  34. Y.... "....

    I tried, I really tried... I am sorry Mr. Waters, without Dave and Pink Floyd you sound really flatly and blank... I guess it's like boxing, champions gotta know when to quit. Best!

  35. a.... m....

    If I had been GOD, I would have made Roger Waters as he is.

  36. �.... �....

    Μία υπέροχη μπαλάντα με βαθύ νόημα.
    Αλήθεια εσείς τι θα κάνατε αν ήσαστε Θεός;

    If I had been God
    I would have rearranged the veins in the face to make them more resistant to alcohol and less prone to aging
    If I had been God
    I would have sired many sons and I would not have suffered the Romans to kill even one of them
    If I had been God
    With my staff and my rod
    If I had been given the nod
    I believe I could have done a better job

    And if I were a drone
    Patrolling foreign skies
    With my electronic eyes for guidance
    And the element of surprise
    I would be afraid to find someone home
    Maybe a woman at a stove
    Baking bread, making rice, or just boiling down some bones
    If I were a drone

    The temple's in ruins
    The bankers get fat
    The buffalo's gone
    And the mountain top's flat
    The trout in the streams are all hermaphrodites
    You lean to the left but you vote to the right
    And it feels like déjà vu
    The sun goes down and I'm still missing you
    Counting the cost of love that got lost
    And under my Gulf Stream, in circular pools
    There's ninety-nine cents' worth of drunkards and fools

  37. P.... P....

    I love a lot of Roger's solo material. But help me figure this one out... I really don't understand how an atheist (which Roger claims to be) can say, if he was God, he would be done a better job?
    So Roger, you believe you would've done a better job with the world than the being you don't even believe exists...who did the job you're referring to? Riiiiiight! And they say those who believe God exists are the crazy ones...sheesh!!

  38. M.... S....

    2:03 minutes

  39. P.... W....

    Roger!Please gimme a heart!

  40. A.... M....

    Pensar que para mi no existe más placentero que escuchar Roger Waters o Pink Floyd al final del día, con 24 años lo escucho desde que tengo uso de razón, gracias viejo por enseñarme la buena música 😍😍

  41. E.... ....

    This song ends too soon. The last section should have been twice as long.

  42. J.... C....

    The sun goes down and I’m still missing you... 🤯

  43. S.... R....

    He sounds like the guy from Pink Floyd.

  44. �.... �....

    Не напоминает исчо один кирьпичь фстену?

  45. t.... ....

    Roger can do anything with a G chord or Em...and it's fine...

  46. S.... R....

    Roger's music simply draws into your soul like a good glass of wine. His music has heart and gives us all something to think about that has substance and true meaning to where life's path has taken us

    S.... R....

    Nice comment

  47. L.... ....

    666 dislikes 😂😂😂

  48. F.... ....

    roger waters < dave rogers ultimate dorifto

  49. N.... 1....

    escuchar a Roger Waters es escuchar a pink floyd,excelente

  50. I.... ....

    This song is incredible, but the drone part always reminds me of Kingsley's song from the UK TV show Fresh Meat lol

  51. C.... L....

    If I had been God,I believe I could have done a better job.
    If I were a drone,I would be afraid to find someone home.

  52. R.... R....

    # Não ao fascismo.

  68. J.... M....

    Rodger waters is Pink Floyd!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  69. F.... N....

    No one writes lyrics better than this guy. He has power to give panic attacks and power to take them away just by his writings. Even when he isn't God, he has been better than God to me all these years.

  70. I.... B....

    It's more Waters the Roger taught us !

  71. I.... R....

    Muito bom, Waters é o cara.

  72. M.... G....

    Thank you for what you did in Brazil, Waters! We really need you and your vision!

  74. R.... F....

    Tomou vaia se mete onde não é chamado

  75. J.... B....

    when you get deja vu it seems you need to change something before you get caught in the loop

  76. J.... B....

    the intro is almost identical to Fearless until the first words sung as to morph into something more

  77. A.... A....

    what a poem..what a great song!

  78. H.... R....

    Superbe mélodie merci Mr.Waters

  79. �.... �....

    Великий музыкант, поэт, человек - Roger Waters!!!

  85. C.... M....

    I was playing this in the background, I was shocked that which song by PF is it, that I didn't hear.

  86. r.... w....

    OHHH man!!! my soul

  87. M.... C....

    Thank for your concert in Cracow. I wish to listen live your previous albums "Pros and Cons", "Amused to Death" and "Radio Kaos". And two songs you published: "Living Beirut" and "Hello I lLove You". There're really brilliant and amazing works!
