Hey you, youre walking down a new york street
Feel the tension in the midday heat
Youre walking on blood
Tv, its all there on a japanese screen
East, west, theres no in between
Now, we just love "the reds"
Everything is now because the past is dead
Youve got to look forward if you want to get ahead
What kind of person sells a young person drugs?
You bring them up good but dont call them thugs
Third world stories, well they make the news
Its a five minute wonder, call it...
Satellite blues
Any way the wind blows
Dive, dive! underground is just the place to be
So cool, it keeps the city clean
Now walk on by
I said "walk, walk, dont run!"
Dont you know youve got to follow the signs?
This lifes so cruel, so cruel to be kind
Its a one-way street
Youve got to live on the edge just to make a big deal
This lifes big fun, man, its like a roulette wheel
What kind of world would let these children die?
Theres so much money we could all retire
We could all live happily if we choose
But its a five minute wonder, call it...
Satellite blues
Any way the wind blows
