Modern Guy lyrics - Death from above 1979
Progress
Not a promise
Devil's laugh
If you go too fast
I'm a modern guy
In a modern time
Looking back
Innocent sweet child life
Untouched by shadows and cold
Grow up fast, told you're no good now
Just dessert, with nothing to ya
I'm a modern guy
In a modern time
The propaganda is getting to grandmas
The new lingo in all the households
Merry Christmas baby, struck from the record
Celebrate the great dawn of utopia
I'm a modern guy
In a modern time
I'm a modern guy
In a modern time
You can change the world if you change you
I'm a modern guy
I'm a modern guy
One + One lyrics - Death from above 1979
I need you, I can't control it
Breathe in, heartbeat automatic
Cast a spell from ancient magic
One plus one is so romantic
Let's do something about it!
Love is action!
Love is action!
I walk in, the kid starts dancing
My heart goes, boom, boom, boom!
One plus one is three, that's magic!
You and me, that's so romantic
Love is action!
Love is action!
Love is...
If you told me years ago
We would be here right now
If I knew you, I wouldn't have wasted my time
With those other girls, other times
Lonely twenties, petty crimes
Bleached hair, basement, wasted
Just to say "I did it, damnit!"
One plus one
One plus one
One plus one
Is so romantic
One plus one
Is three that's magic
One plus one
Is so romantic
One plus one
Is three that's magic
Love is action!
Love is action!
Free Animal lyrics - Death from above 1979
I see no chains or fences
I see no gates of steel
I see no cellblock lockdown
I see no walls at all
Let me tell you a little secret
I'm a free animal!
I see no hanging paycheck
I see no punching clocks
I see no snakes and ladders
I see no golden watch
All together now
I'm a free animal!
La! La! La! La! La! La!
If only in your mind, you can be set free
Then maybe on your skin, you can be set free
Then maybe in your home, you can be set free
Then maybe in the world, you can be set free
Set yourself free!
Set yourself free!
I'm a free animal!
I'm a free animal!
N.Y.C. Power Elite Part I lyrics - Death from above 1979
N.Y.C.
Power Elite
N.Y.C.
Power Elite
They got ripped jeans in the boardroom
Boredom in the bedroom
Nose-jobs, snow-jobs
High above the city
N.Y.C.
Power Elite
N.Y.C.
Power Elite
They go upstate on the weekends
Helicopter brunches
Art-shows
Cryptos to exes on the payroll
"I haven't carried cash since 9-11"
I'm just like you
I'm no hero
Just add zeros
I'm just like you
I'm no hero
Just add zeros to zeros
N.Y.C. power Elite
Breakaway uncivilized
N.Y.C. power Elite
I'm morally un-compromised
N.Y.C. power Elite
Got something special cooking uptown, baby
N.Y.C. power Elite
I'll send a black car to you downtown maybe
"I haven't eaten cake since last election"
I'm just like you
I'm no hero
Just add zeros
I'm just like you
I'm no hero
Just add zeros to zeros
N.Y.C.
Power Elite
N.Y.C.
Power Elite
N.Y.C. (N.Y.C.)
Power Elite (Power Elite)
N.Y.C. (N.Y.C.)
Power Elite (Power Elite)
N.Y.C.
N.Y.C. Power Elite Part II lyrics - Death from above 1979
It's killing me just living
It's killing me just living in the city
I'm ninety-three and slipping
While CNN is tripping when the phone rings
She said:
"It's killing me just living
It's killing me just living in this body"
I'm ninety-three and haunted
By ghosts in old world clothing
When the phone rings
Totally Wiped Out lyrics - Death from above 1979
Totally
Wiped out
Totally
Wiped out
Surfing serf
Surf till you're dumb
Surf your brains out
Surf till you cum
Wipe out all the cache
Cookies in the closet
Running out of data
Heating up your pocket
I'm wiped-out like everyone
Totally
Wiped out
Totally
Wiped-out
Hot wave comin' down
Everybody blowing out
Lurkin' on the wifi
Locals only verified
Meta-data fishnet
Spying on the candidate
Reef-rash radio
Newsflash: Maybe I don't know
I'm wiped-out like everyone
Totally
Wiped out
Totally!
Wiped out
Totally
Wiped out
Totally
Wiped out
Totally
Surfing serf
Surf in your bed
Surf your love life
Surf till you're dead
Wipe out all the memory
Brain is in the pocket
Tide is coming in soon
Kooks are in the coffin
I'm wiped out like everyone
I'm wiped out
Oh man, I've missed so many waves
Drowned
Oh man, I've missed so many days
Wiped out
Oh man, I've missed so many waves
Drowned
Oh man, I've missed so many days
Wiped out
Totally
Wiped out
Totally
Wiped out
Totally
Wiped-out
Totally
Wiped out
Wiped out
Glass Homes lyrics - Death from above 1979
We're all born into other people's stuff
Maybe your politics suck
Face it everybody's messed up
We're all sick of the same old trick
But there's some magic in the world
Believe in something or it doesn't turn
Round, round, round
All we're doing is
Throwing stones from glass homes
Throwing stones from glass homes
We're all born just trying to take a breath
Maybe your lungs are still wet
So you cry until you finally get
A small piece of the sky inside
You know that heaven is a leaven
Hell is low and dry and so we get
High, high, high
Watch the ceiling, love
Throwing stones from glass homes
Throwing stones from glass homes
Throwing stones from glass homes
Throwing stones from glass homes
Love Letter lyrics - Death from above 1979
How I'd love to say
"Let me count the ways"
But it's not quite right
I can't see the light
When you're outta sight
So I try to write
Love letter sealed without a kiss
You're the one that I miss
Love letters never write themselves
So take this with a kiss
Write it on the back
Of an old match pack
From a little place we used to like
On the lower east side
But it's still not right
So I put the pencil down
Hands upon the keys
See what just comes out naturally
Can't hide it in a book
Shoebox under the bed
So if I sing it right
You'll never lose this
Love letter sealed without a kiss
You're the one that I miss
Love letters never write themselves
So take this with a kiss
How I'd love to say
"Let me count the ways"
But it's not quite right
I can't see the light
When you're outta sight
So I start to write
Love letters never write themselves
Love letter sealed without a kiss
Love letter sealed without a kiss
You're the one that I miss
Love letters never write themselves
So take this with a kiss
Mean Streets lyrics - Death from above 1979
Mean streets
Like Robert De Niro
He's mad for a reason
His reasons unclear though
Mean streets
We're flexing machismo
It's rockers and mods
It's the fragile young ego
Mean Streets!
Oh
Maybe we need less style
More substance, substance
Freaks are in the mainstream
On TV, Radio, CBC
Freaks are in the courtroom testifying
Go to jail looking fly
Don't pass go, no dough fo yo
Ten years fo sho, so story go
Talking past
No talk at all
Just slogans, memes and dick fuck all
Ah!
Oh!
No War lyrics - Death from above 1979
Fake hate
Fake love
No-one can see through the blood
Moonwalk on Che Guevara's grave
For rockers and gays, were locked up in cages
For ages and ages
The whole world is hard to believe
The whole world is hard to believe
The whole world is hard to believe
If you speak in words that you don't understand
Fake noose
Hang truth
Peace is my point of view
No war!
Why is that so hard to sell?
Oh well!
Oh well!
The whole world is hard to believe
The whole world is hard to believe
The whole world is hard to believe
If you speak in words that you don't understand
Don't Stop Believin' lyrics - Death from above 1979
(originally by Journey)
Just a small-town girl, livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy, born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
A singer in a smoky room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile, they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waitin'
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searchin' in the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win, some will lose
Some are born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waitin'
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searchin' in the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlights, people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlights, people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlights, people
Keep It Real Dumb lyrics - Death from above 1979
Are you in or you out? There's nothing but details
Tear like a shirt on a national retail
All packed up, are you ready to go?
Go set my folders up but you've got nothing to show
You keep it real, but you keep it real dumb
There's nothing for me
You keep it real so now you've become
So ordinary
I can't buy you with your money
Put you on a bus, send you off to school
You can hold my hand or buy it all
I'll send you the bill and write it off
You can shop
'Til you drop
Credit cards
Wreck the cart
Stupid phones
Smarter phones
Don't look up, no one's home
Now, you feel like all the rest
Now, pick the truth that you like best
You keep it real, but you keep it real dumb
There's nothing for me
You keep it real so now you've become
So ordinary
You keep it real, but you keep it real dumb
Now you're with me
You keep it real so now you've become
So ordinary
Golden chains
Keep us slaves
You keep it real, but you keep it real dumb
There's nothing for me
You keep it real so now you've become
So ordinary
You keep it real, but you keep it real dumb
Now you're with me
You keep it real so now you've become
So ordinary
Yeah
