Shriekback - Beyond Metropolis

Текст песни

I was afraid of this
Round every corner there’s a head on a stick
This town ain’t what it used to be
This sentiment is moving me
Beyond Metropolis
Beggaring belief
The Lords and Ladies pick the meat from the bones
Ideas above my station try
To levitate and learn to fly
Beyond Metropolis
Moving on, moving on, moving on
Coming home, coming home, coming home
Can you picture this?
Exnovotechnikageopolis
All coloured noise and black light kiss
Panchromosoniradiopolis
Or down a deep and dark abyss
Subterranononphotopolis
It could feed all fears and phobias
Mescalinomedichemicotopia
All human life will seethe and hiss
Cosmovivageniparahystopolis
I swear to you this place exists
It’s just beyond Metropolis
