Citizen — текст песни (Simple Minds)

Citizen

A cure to kill the east

A disease of the west

Romance is no escape

But Ill escape you

The manufacturing sound

Complaining to ourselves

Youre cutting up our friends

Making love to our sisters

Another endless day

Another daze

But Im losing track

The train goes off the rails

Dance of the youth

Youth want to dance



Citizen

The tribal war begins

But radios a god

Industrial money

God is industry

Dance of youth

Citizen you know what were after

Know what were after

Know what were after



Citizen

The state that weve come to love

Loves a crime against the state

I hate the sound of bells

Communications lost

Something were after

I hate democracy

One more contact lost

Love

A crime against the state

The state weve come to love

Oh electric candle light

What time is it over there

We got to wear a badge

Were losing track of days



Dance of the youth

Youth want to dance



Citizen

Ill share a room with you

Youre getting so very thin

Did we ask for this

Are you rationing our water

Dance of the youth

Our food is getting cold

And youre getting colder

I see you

Im not so unaware

Citizen



Citizen

An american

Got got a camera

Takes a picture

Citizen

Drum

Citizen

Drum

Citizen

Drum

To drum to drum
