Action This Day toma su nombre de un discuro hecho por Winston Churchill. la canción fue interpretada com bastante frecuencia durante el Hot Space Tour, pero se cambiaban los sintetizadores y la maquina de percusión por un sección más rockera. La canción se puede encontrar en el DVD que lleva el nombre de Queen on Fire - Live at the Bowl.

 

-Letra Original

 

Action

 

This street honey is a mean street

Living in this street honey needs a mean streak

We've got criminals living in this street

But there's a heart beat pulse

That keeps on pumping

Like a juke box playing the same dead record

Or a radio in the corner keeps blaring

I got a feeling this world is using me

 

This town honey is a dead town

Living in this town honey is a let down

Coming to this town honey is a show down

But there's a heart beat pulse

That keeps on pumping some sunshine ray

Through a crack in the shutter

Or a sight of a light at the end of a tunnel

Still there's a feeling this world is using me

 

Action this day action this night

Oh we've gotta learn to love to live

You can't say it ain't right

Action this day action this night

Oh you've got the power you've got the power

You've got the power to love to live

You can't say it ain't right

 

Your mind honey is a bleak place

Living in your minds living in a blank space

Your mind is coming from a rat race

But there's a heart beat pulse

That keeps on pumping

Like a juke box playing the same dead record

Or a radio in the corner keeps blaring

I got a feeling that just won't quit

This world is using me

 

Action this day action this night

Oh we've gotta learn to love to live

We can't say it ain't right

Action this day action this night

Oh you've got the power you've got the power

You've got the power to love to live

You can't say it ain't right

 

Action, action this day

Action this day

Action, action this day

Action this day

Living in the street...

Action...
