BRYAN FERRY - Don't Stop the Dance lyrics

Waking in this state

The world seems strange to me

How can something so beautiful

Shine on something so dreadful

Realized this too late...

You sell them short for what they are

One day they'll show you who they are

Leave it to us to tape our mouths

The silence will add more to release

Cuz talking has become a taboo

If only they knew the power that they had

I wake up and find myself unstable

I'm hoping that this world is just a fable

How can something so beautiful

Shine on something so dreadful

The hunger necessitates the slaves

To fasten and redirect their waves

One day the silence will be torn

Despoil these social straps we've worn

I wake up and find myself unstable

I'm hoping that this world is just a fable

If only they knew the power that they had

You sell them short

You sell them short

Realized this too late to fight it

Realized it's too late to fight it

Realized it's too late...
