Lyrics:
here is survive, grit your teeth and just stay alive
And never understand
The young ones they dance with fire in their hearts until the years go by
would like to start all over again
Baby, can I change my mind
'Cause I would like to change my mind
You know, I was confused, sitting here by myself
a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here and so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you
this way
But there was no use ignoring
The rest of the day
Since people are dying in almost every possible place
I'd rather not leave the bed here
This is my island in the sun
Where my people have toiled since time begun
I may sail on many a sea
Her shores will always be home to me
evolved enough
We'll share you in a civilized manner between the two of us
But until then I would a love see you again,
Me know we have for play it by
loved you more
It took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer
the lights on?
Drop bombs?
Do tours of the East?
Contract diseases?
Bury bones?
Break up homes?
Send flowers by phone?
Take to drink?
Go to shrinks?
I would open up the book
But I don't know where to start to look
You're so tall and you're so strong
Standing by me
But this won't take too
It was down by old Joe's barroom, on the corner of the square
They were serving drinks as usual, and the usual crowd was there
On my left stood Big
belonging to a boy
Now, you haven't had a passionate kissing session or anything,
but you got to go on a camping trip with him
and eight other people
green
I'm with you once more under the stars
And down by the shore an orchestra's playing
And even the palms seem to be swaying
When they begin
on your mind
But you'll be back and I'll lose them forever
'Cause I'm wondering why, now, should I ask your name
All the people standing by, all there in
ourselves a drum machine to keep the beat strong
Well we bought the Irish People, the Echo and the Voice
And we rang a few bars, said "we got a new
on your face and how we all laughed?
Ha-ha-hey!
[chorus 1:]
I don't believe in doing things by halves,
People think I'm crazy, but I'm really daft
I'll do
strike down the leader and the people willscatter
sold my life for a price and now my blood lays on your hands
high priests have gathered
I just can't believe what I'm seeing
It makes me sick inside
Condemned by the world around me
I'm not gonna run and hide
I'm gonna come alive
It was down by old Joe's barroom, on the corner of the square
They were serving drinks as usual, and the usual crowd was there
On my left stood Big
It's all out on the streets today but you, you've found a place to hide
Too busy with the rat race, you pass by on the other side
Yours is the face
is my middle name
I was raised in a king break
By an old mother lion
Ain't no high talking woman gonna make me walk the line
**********repeat
kind of though
People know you know
That life is really of rough
And your mama comes and hits you
With a plastic telephone
And she's gone and told
inside
And your summer days were spent
Collecting soap opera stories
Comes trouble - here comes trouble (2x)
Wow
Saved by the music makers
Speed
in love
Yes, you probably are
But you wanna be straight about it
Oh, you wanna be straight about it now
Can you imagine what the people say? Can
instead
The more money, more problems like the man said
Ain't like my phone is bein tapped by the damn FEDs
But my accountant said I can't get out
