There's a hole in the wall next to you Things with legs are crawling through the man is searching for the door and you run you're coming out you're going down Chorus 1: There's an all night party in room 7609 la la la late bar la la la la la la la late Chorus 2: And you can dance together all night, if you've got the time la la la late bar la la la la la la la late The bodies move like flies on the wall You want to run but there's no space at all The dancers spinning on the mirror ball You're coming out you're going round (chorus 1) (chorus 2) (chorus 1) (chorus 2)
Didn't no one tell you Money is the game You're playing so hard to get now I don't even know your name Chorus: Don't play with me, I've nothing to lose Khanada I'll get by It ain't no ones day, coming so soon Khanada I'll get by I dont believe in dragons or blues Khanada I'll get by I don't believe in nobody's rules Khanada I'll get by Heavy as the rain falls I might go outside Just because you're with me Doesn't mean you're not the same (chorus)
(Instrumental)
You've done it all, you've broken every code and pulled the Rebel to the floor You spoilt the game, no matter what you say for only metal-what a bore! Blue eyes, blue eyes, how come you tell so many lies? Come up and see me, make me smile or do what you want, run on wild There's nothing left, all gone and run away Maybe you'll tarry for a while It's just a test, a game for us to play win or lose, it's hard to smile Resist, resist, it's from yourself you have to hide (chorus) There ain't no more, you've taken everthing from my belief in Mother Earth How can you ignore my faith in everything when I know what Faith is and what it's worth Away, away, and don't say maybe you'll try (chorus)
Wise on a birthday party in a world full of surprising fireworks and sudden silence Lies on a stranger's bed the new day breaks like a speeding train on an old friend ever expected, but never knocking Holding your own in a battered car All night parties cocktail bars and smile when the butterfly escapes the killing jar Chorus: Sure eyes awake before the dancing is over Wise or naked in Secret Oktober Freefall on a windy morning shore-- nothing but a fading track of footsteps, to prove that you'd ever been there Spoken on a cotton cloud like the sound of gunshot taken by the wind and lost in distant thunder Racing on a shining plane Tomorrow won't be content to watch as the lightning plays along the wires, and you'll wonder... (chorus x2)
Time will see we're not searching for a wild excuse to put emotion back on hold Too much has gone down, we know what youre doing, but do you feel the same way You look sharp inside your pointed shoes, I have this picture hanging in my room But I refuse to take you down or shake you down, we could bring you gently round If thats what you choose for a point of view I think youll find its true These words are like sand, just get blown away All the things we'd like to say... We need you We need you (we need you) We need you (we need you) We need you (we need you) We need you (we need you) We need you (we need you) We need you.
The taxman's in the pocketbook The pressman's by the bar And all the world is at your door It's strange that you should lock it up And preach an open heart But you know what they're waiting for Chrous: You can turn your face away now And don't think twice I'm just the ordinary guy you used to know I'm not after your money Or even your advice I believe you'll follow me It's all I need to know I was tempted by the devil in this deep blue swimming pool Until the devils make a ??? And my future's in the strangled oath of ever changing rules I don't intend to understand You can stop pretending now that I had you fooled I'm still the ordinary guy you used to know I'm not after your money To paralise my soul I believe you'll follow me It's all I need to know Promise me you'll try to understand Before I go (chorus) Promise me you'll try to understand Before I go All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know (repeat to fade)
God created the world, then created the Devil to blame for his mistakes I closed the door of my hotel room behind me, it was like closing a chapter in the book of life. Outside thirty floors below I could hear the police using their sirens like wolf whistles to pick up young girls. On TV Oliver North (his fifteen minutes of fame ticking steadily away) was being fuzzy about crucial events which had happened a year earlier what a flake...but then who isn't? -that was Regan's defence at least. The worst thing is how politics begin to lead into your life. Back in our innocence we used to simply stick two fingers up to politics, say "fuck the Queen", that was about all you had to say anyway and go back to the more important business of making music. So why was I sitting there feeling angry about covert operations and illegal aid to the contras? I mean I'm not even American (may be we all are a little bit). Then I realised it was just the idea that in this particular democracy and probably every other one in the world, there is somebody in power who thinks he is more right than all the people who put him there, all the people who for once in their lives took an interest. Outside the wind was howling the "Who Who's" from Sympathy for the Devil round and round the concrete hotel walls and corners. That was then, this is...!
This is how a road gets made. Somebody walked on a virgin (land). Someone else saw their tracks and followed them, leaving a path. It seemed as though i were looking down the hill when I first saw it, but, as I waled on, I realized I was going up. Somebody whistled behind and turning round, they seemed far below. Then I came to where there had been a fire and was shaded from the sun by the trees. Figure of eight. It's our year, it always was. Credentials: Made of earth, drinks water, breathes air, makes fire.
Meeting you with a view to a kill Face to faces, secret places, feel the chill Night fall covers me but you know the plans I'm making Still overseas, could it be the whole lot opening wide A sacred why A mystery gaping inside A week is why Until we dance into the fire That fatal kiss is all we need Dance into the fire To fatal sounds of broken dreams Dance into the fire That fatal kiss is all we need Dance into the fire The choice for you is the view to a kill Between the shades assacination standing still First crystal tears, fallen of snowflakes on your body First time in years to drench you skin of lover's rosy stain A chance to find the phoenix for the flame A chance to die But can we dance into the fire That fatal kiss is all we need Dance into the fire To fatal sounds of broken dreams Dance into the fire That fatal kiss is all we need Dance into the fire When all we see is the view to a kill
