Zabranjena verzija, snimljena negde sredinom 80-tih. Zabranjena je zbog slicnosti sa Janis Joplin

I believe there's no evil out there we didn't have a hand in
You believe it's a time for peace and a time for understanding
Some of us believe that we are chosen
And if God is on our side we'll win the game
And some of us believe that there's a heaven
When the trumpets sound and the judges call your name
But let's get it straight

I believe there's just once chance in this world to hear our brothers
You believe there's a better way to listen to each other
We don't get what the other guy is saying
We hear the words but we don't understand
So around the world the same old anger raging
And we all cry for shame and the same old tragedy goes down

We believe there's a better way to fight
There's a way to make our children safe at night
We believe there's a war we could be winning
But the only way to win it is to give what we need to receive

I believe we need a hero to step boldly from the shadows
You believe there must be someone on the scene that fits the bill
A man or a woman who knows how to say I'm sorry
With courage in his heart to match his creed
A leader who can build a brand new morning
And match the tide of changes

[ From: http://www.metrolyri...rics-queen.html ]

Match the intent with the deed

We believe there's a deed of obligation
To bring reconciliation
To make peace with every nation - in our time
We believe there's not a minute we should be wasting
When the darkness falls it's too late to fix the crime
It's peace that we need

Every father every mother knows the meaning
Human treasure that our leaders do forget
And the bullets fly in the face of common reason
And the pain we give is the legacy in the end we get

We believe there's a song that's worth the singing
It's a song of truth we're bringing
There's a way to share the Earth with everyone
We believe every creature has a being
Has a right to respect and feeling
To live and breathe and flourish in the sun

That's what we believe

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

Pems Mad the Swine, je trebala da bude odmah iza pesme Great King Rat i logicki se naslanja na nju, medjutim zbog vrlo lose post produkcije izbacena je sa albuma.

Queen nikada nije bila ljubimac engleskih medija. Zasto je to bilo tako, to je sa ove perspektive tesko reci, ali da su bili cenjeni vise recimo u Americi i Japanu nego u Engleskoj (od strane stampe i medija), je bilo ocigledno. Fredi je zato voleo da ih sokira sa svojom pojavom, sa sorcevima, sa helankama, toliko uskim da se jasno vidi....Kada su krajem 70-tih na vrhu Village People, on je iz sale pustio brkove, i tako iz ciste sale postade simbol, mada ih je nosio nepunih 6 godina......

Fredi je i za vreme zivota i posle smrti bio jako osporavan. Cinjenica je da je od kraja 70-tih imao samo homosekusalne veze, ali mu je od strane LGBT udruzenja osporavano sto nikada nije vrsio promociju i sto nije ucestvovao u propagiranju seksualne ravnopravnosti. Dobio je tako nadimak "Stage Queen". Takodje, posle smrti mu je cak zamerano sto iako je znao da boluje od AIDS-a, nije usmerio svoje aktivnosti u propagiranju borbe protiv te bolesti.
Cinjenica je da i pored toga sto je na sceni delovao cesto ekscentricno, u privatnom zivotu je bio jako povucen i nerado je pricao o sebi i privatnosti. Uvek je zeleo da svetla pozornice budu kada nastupa, a da se ugase kada to prestane. Zeleo je da zivi miran zivot. Mnogi to nisu shvatali. Ima neke simbolike i u cinjenici da je priznao da boluje od AIDS-a samo dva dane pre smrti. U poruci medijima je napisao da je to jako privatna stvar i da bi zeleo da ga zbog cinjenice da boluje od AIDS-a ne proganjaju. Nisu ni imali sanse. Umro je dva dana kasnije.
Kada se danas pogleda svet, i kada se uporedi sa onim iz 1991, tesko ko bi mogao da poveruje kolika je doza homofobicnosti vladala britanskim medijima. Na kraju krajeva, ljudi sa AIDS-om su odbacivani i osudjivani na smrt u samoci. Srecom vremena su se promenila. Na zalost Fredijeva smrt je imala uticaj u tim promenama. Spot za pesmu I`m going slithly mad, je reziran od strane Fredija. U stvari u tom spotu je pokazao kroz sta prolazi. Upecatljiv je detalj kada lik koji glumi u spotu seda na kauc, a ostali se lagano uzmicu. U stvari prikazao je kako se drustvo tada odnosilo prema AIDS-u.
