Saturday is shopping day--
I drive my car but there's no place to park it
--no respect for superman in supermarket
I guess there must be trouble but I not been alerted
looking round the store it was all deserted and I'm
stranded here with my empty basket
so full of question got nowhere to ask it

By the one way out
strange voice shout
"Don't let that good man out!"

"Have a wonderful day in our one-way world
one way, one day
Have a wonderful day in our one-way world
one way, one day
one-way man
one-way mind
get along with mankind"


Oh, there's an old man on the floor, so I summon my charm
I say "Hey Scumbag, has there been an alarm?"
he said "Yeh, 'been selling off eternal youth
they all got afraid 'cos I'm the living proof
My name is Einstein do you know time is a curve?"
I said "Stop old man! you got a nerve
'cos there's only one rule that I observe
Time is money and money I serve"

By the one way out
strange voice shout
"Don't let that good man out"

"Have a wonderful day in our one-way world
one way, one day
Have a wonderful day in our one way world
one way, one day
one-day man
one-day mind

Peter Gabriel foi vocalista do Genesis até 1975

Gabriel se reuniu aos antigos colegas de Genesis em 1982. A reunião aconteceu porque ele precisava cobrir os prejuízos que tinha tido com o WOMAD, o festival de world music criado por ele.

O disco So de 1986 foi o maior sucesso comercial de Peter Gabriel. Chegou ao segundo lugar da parada americana e rendeu os hits (e clipes inovadores) Sledgehammer e Big Time.

Gabriel também compôs trilhas para cinema como as de "Asas da Liberdade" de Alan Parker e "A Última Tentação de Cristo" de Martin Scorsese.

Peter Gabriel é dono do estúdio Real World. Os rendimentos do estúdio ajudam a manter Peter como um dos músicos mais ricos da Inglaterra.
