Simple Minds - Citizen (dance Of Youth) lyrics

Citizen A cure to k** the east A disease of the west Romance is no escape But i'll escape you The manufacturing sound Complaining to ourselves You're cutting up our friends Making love to our sisters Another endless day Another daze But i'm losing track The train goes off the rails Dance of the youth Youth want to dance Citizen The tribal war begins But radio's a god Industrial money God is industry Dance of youth Citizen you know what we're after Know what we're after Know what we're after Citizen The state that we've come to love Love's a crime against the state I hate the sound of bells Communications lost Something we're after I hate democracy One more contact lost Love A crime against the state The state we've come to love Oh electric candle light What time is it over there We got to wear a badge We're losing track of days Dance of the youth Youth want to dance Citizen I'll share a room with you You're getting so very thin Did we ask for this Are you rationing our water Dance of the youth Our food is getting cold And you're getting colder I see you I'm not so unaware Citizen Citizen An american Got got a camera Takes a picture Citizen Drum Citizen Drum Citizen Drum To drum to drum Lyrics : j kerr music : simple minds (c) emi publishing ltd reproduced without permission
