Gowan - Keep The Tension On lyrics

Of complacency

It loves to suck you in

Till you're history

If you can't afford the price

Of a fatal slip

You better learn to dance

To the master's whip

(chorus)

Keep the tension on

It helps to keep the tension on

There's something to be said

For the sweating palm

There's nothing like the high

>From a ticking bomb

You've got to put yourself

To the acid test

Or let your life decay

In a fat-cat's rest

repeat chorus

All day long I dream I'm outside

On the hundredth floor

Down below are people - screaming

Feel their tension soar

repeat chorus
