phil collins song?

Question

what song has the lyrics, the puck stops here and you never listen to me

Answer 1

that last one was a song by genesis, this one is by phil collins, it maybe the one you want

Colours
Phil Collins

Deep inside the border
Children are crying
Fighting for food
Holding their heads
Breaking their bread with a stone

All along the roadside
people are standing
watching the sun
shielding their eyes
Brushing the flies from their face

Tell me, what can you say
Tell me, who do you blame
Like a mirror you see yourself
These people each have a name

All around the township
Young men are dying
(of) hunger and thirst
The well has run dry
The tears from her eye feeds her son

Tell me...

You can say you're pulling back
We see the pictures everywhere
But what we don't see is what's
Going on behind the closed doors
And you don't seem to care

Do you expect me to believe you
How can you really think
You can take your horse down to the water
Hold a gun at his head
And make him drink

No matter what you say, it never gets any better
No matter what you do, we never see any change

People living without rights
Without their dignity
How loud does one man have to shout
To earn his right to be free

You can keep your toy soldiers
To segregate the black and white
But when the dust settles
And the blood stops running
How do you sleep at night?

No matter what you say...

What makes you so high and mighty
What makes you so qualified
You can sit there and say
How many have their freedom
But how many more have died

You decide to sit in judgement
Trying to play God yourself
Someday soon the buck is gonna stop
Stop with you and noone else

No matter...

Answer 2

It's by Genesis, a group Phil Collins was part of. The song is called "No Reply At All"

The link to the lyrics is below, but I believe this is the part you're talking about:

Maybe deep down inside,
I'm tryin' for no one else but me,
too stubborn to say, "The buck stops here.
I'm not the one you're lookin' for."

But maybe deep down inside, I'm lyin'
To no one else but me.
Oh, but my back is up. I'm on my guard
With all the exits sealed.

Listen to me, you never listen to me.
Oooh, and it seems there's no way out.
I've been tryin' but we cannot connect.

And there's no reply at all.
There's no reply at all.
There's no reply at all.
No reply at all.
Is anybody list'nin? Oh, there's no reply at all...

Answer 3

no reply at all by genesis

Talk to me, you never talk to me.
Ooh, it seems that i can speak.
But i can hear my voice shouting out.
But there's no reply at all.

Look at me, you never look at me,
Ooh, i've been sitting, staring, seems so long.
But you're looking through me
Like i wasn't here at all.
No reply, there's no reply at all.

Dance with me, you never dance with me.
Ooh, it seems that i can move,
I'm close to you, close as i can get.

Yet there's no reply at all,
There's no reply at all.

I get the feeling you're tryin' to tell me,
Is there something that i should know?
What excuse are you tryin' to sell me?
Should i be reading stop or go, i don't know.

Be with me, seems you're never here with me,
Ooh, i've been trying to get over there.
Ah, but it's out of my reach.
And there's no reply at all.





There's no reply at all.

I get the feeling you're trying to tell me;
Is there something that i should know?
What excuse are you trying to sell me?
Should i be reading stop or go, i don't know.

Maybe deep down inside,
I'm trying for no one else but me.
Too stubborn to say, "the buck stops here.
It's not the one you're looking for."
But, maybe deep down inside,
I'm lying to no one else but me.
Oh but my back is up.
I'm on my guard - with all the exits sealed.

Listen to me, you never listen to me,
Ooh, and it seems there's no way out,
I've been trying, but we cannot connect,
And there's no reply at all,
There's no reply at all,
There's no reply at all,
No reply at all.

Is anybody listening - oh oh,
No reply at all...


and it's buck...not puck...:)
