The Call - 46664



46664 - The Call
Written and recorded by Queen (and possibly others). Length 4:36 approx.
The studio version of this track has not been officially released, yet.
The live version is basically the first half of the track, the studio version then continues with an orchestral section, another verse and chorus, then an instrumental outro.
There seem to be at least two versions of this track available.
The first (Mix 1) is in relatively poor quality and was played on Capitol Radio in the UK in 2003. MP3's of this track omit some of the intro reducing the time to 4:26.
The second version (Mix 2), is available in near-studio quality, and has a single lyric change at the start of the track (this lyric was also sung on the live performance).
There are also some differences in the volumes especially during the quieter sections of the track, there may also be some other changes, but the sound quality makes it hard to compare.





The Call - 46664
Yeah
There was a man in the street just the other day
With a tear and a hand thin long hand stretched out looking my way
Said 'your money, your sympathy, I really don't need
What I want is you to see how my brothers bleed'
Doctor, oh doctor, my world needs attention
Got sickness and poverty just too bad to mention
Got people too blind to see what's going by
My country stored it's wealth and now it can't figure why
But the rest of the world wants it back now
They got no weapons so they just bug us for the crack now
You gonna stand by and let this go on indefinitely?
Let our leaders articulate our indifference with impunity?
Are you a man?
Or just a number?

Help, help, we need you
Your world needs you
Needs you to know
Needs you to sit up
Needs you to take action and say
No, this will not happen
No, we will not let this happen
No, it shall not be one law for the black, one law for the white
It shall not be one law for the man, one law for the woman
It shall not be one law for the heterosexual, one law for the homosexual
One law for the rich country, one law for the poor country
It shall be one law only
It shall be equality, equality of opportunity
Equality of healthcare, equality of power
Equality of civil rights
Are you a woman?
Or just a number?
Make the call

Yeah
So people, will we let these children die
So we get less mouths to feed
Or shall we ????? and administer to them in their hour of need
AIDS is the terror our children must fear
AIDS is the name we shudder just to hear
AIDS is the word at the back of our minds
AIDS is like no other, the threat of all mankind
AIDS is the call to tear the boundaries down
The issue we must clearly face now
Equality, equality of opportunity
Equality of healthcare, equality of power
Equality of civil rights
Equality of all humanity
Are you a man?
This is the call
