Gary Numan - We Are So Fragile lyrics

advertising lies that are whiter than yours

we are so fragile

they could give us a war just to keep us amused

we are so fragile

i could stay here inside and say it's all been done

we are so fragile

just pretend i never tried i leave it up to you

we are still so young

and it must be wrong but i'd do it all the same

and we are really so shy

there's nothing i can do but believe in this

we could always go home

but everyone says this is the place to be

we are so unnatural

but you wouldn't understand, you only deal with men

Gary Numan, "We Are So Fragile", B-side of "Are 'Friends' Electric?"

(Beggars Banquet 1979
