Cold and lonely, tired and bored
Just like the day before Missing out on life's reward Of that you can be sure So bring on the dancing girls Take off the cold night and the sad day Bring on the dancing girls Take off the twilight and the skies so grey And they dance for him inside his head Soul destroyed by life's demands With nothing to believe Our hero sits with head in hands And heart upon his sleeve So bring on the dancing girls Take off the cold night and the sad day Bring on the dancing girls Bring on the girls to dance his blues away And they danced for him inside his head Dancing girls Take off the cold night and the sad day Bring on the dancing girls Bring on the girls to dance his blues away |

They found me lost in space, nowhere to go
With the stakes so high and my resistance so low They said "follow us, follow us today We are the truth, we are the way" "Young man" they said "your search is through" You can trust in us, and we'll look after you We will be your body we will be your mind And we've a face of each and every kind Yes we've a face of each and every kind" (Chorus) "One for us and one for you One for old and one for new One for rich and one for poor One for peace and one for war One for peace and one for war" "There's no need for you to hear or see We'll do your thinking for you, if you'll agree So close your eyes and let yourself unwind And we can leave the real world behind" For a moment, I was taken in They were in my body they were under my skin Until I head a voice crying "Set me free" And I realized that it was me Yes I realized that it was me Just when you really think you're going places They come inside of you with their many faces (Chorus) |

Forty winks in the lobby, make mine a G&T
Then to our favorite hobby, searching for an enemy Here in our paper houses, stretching for miles and miles Old men in stripy trousers rule the world with plastic smiles Good or bad, like it or not It's the only one we've got I won't let the sun go down on me I won't let the sun go down I won't let the sun go down on me I won't let the sun go down Mother nature isn't in it, three hundred million years Goodbye in just a minute, gone forever, no more tears Pinball man, power glutton, vacuum inside his head Forefinger on the button, is he blue or is he red Break your silence if you would Before the sun goes down for good I won't let the sun go down on me I won't let the sun go down I won't let the sun go down on me I won't let the sun go down I won't let the sun go down on me I won't let the sun go down I won't let the sun go down on me I won't let the sun go down I won't let the sun go down on me I won't let the sun go down |

Closing in on empty spaces
winners laugh too soon. Their paper world with paper faces beneath a paper moon. There's a man a real pace setter coming after me. And after him there's someone better and after him there's me. Oh well he'll offer you a cigaret he'll offer you a light. But he hasn't finished with you yet on another long knife night. So look behind you there's the man you're chasing. Look behind you let's go human racing, human racing. Let's go racing now. Open arms and open purses open season's here. Well they fill your head with clever verses and then they disappear. Silent vowes in secret places they'll get you somehow. Cause you never win them human races so who's the loser now. Look behind you there's the man you're chasing. Look behind you let's go human racing, human racing. Let's go racing now. Na na na na na na. Human racing. After me, after him. Now na na now. Who's the loser... |

Another cat amongst the pigeons
Another spanner in the scheme of things I don't know why it shakes them up so much They're so out of touch with me. It isn't easy finding something new The bible bashers beat you black and blue Fire and brimstone raining down on you But you know it's true, they know what they can do. (Chorus ) Monkey business, mankind I've got a theory that will blow your mind Monkey business, you'll see I got you swinging from swinging from tree to tree I'm never sure about what they want They put their collars on back to front They got their answers and they don't like mine But I'm only trying to help. They say I should be full of shame and dread They point to Genesis and shake their head They don't know what it is they makes them tick But I've news for them and it's not so romantic. Monkey business, mankind I've got a theory that will blow your mind Monkey business, you'll see I've got you swinging from tree to tree. Monkey business, mankind I've got a theory that will blow your mind Monkey business, you'll see You got an ape in your family tree. We don't want monkey business We don't want monkey business Monkey business, mankind I've got a theory that will blow your mind Monkey business, you'll see You've got an ape in your family tree |

With an air of independence
She walks into your domain You are captured by her beauty You can feel her taking aim And the way she lets her hair down Sets a pounding in your head But you get the strangest feeling That she wouldn't care if you were dead But underneath the cold and staring eyes Underneath the cut of her replies Underneath the passionless disguise, Oh, she cries, she cries,? she cries? Underneath the show that never dies Underneath the calculating lies Underneath emotionless goodbyes, oh, she cries... She cries? She cries? My, oh, my, don't you cry Mama will see to your body and mind My, oh, my, don't you cry Mama will see to your body and mind... From a well detached position, you can see her targets fall It seems she doesn't care for anyone It seems she doesn't care at all But underneath the cold and staring eyes Underneath the cut of her replies Underneath the passionless disguise, she cries... She cries? She cries? Underneath the show that never dies Underneath the calculating lies Underneath emotionless goodbyes, oh, she cries... She cries? She cries? |
