Radio Ga Ga 05:51
I'd sit alone and watch your light My only friend through teenage nights And everything I had to know I heard it on my radio You gave them all those old time stars Through wars of worlds invaded by Mars You made 'em laugh, you made 'em cry You made us feel like we could fly (radio) So don't become some background noise A backdrop for the girls and boys Who just don't know or just don't care And just complain when you're not there You had your time, you had the power You've yet to have your finest hour Radio (radio) All we hear is radio ga ga Radio goo goo Radio ga ga All we hear is radio ga ga Radio blah blah Radio, what's new? Radio, someone still loves you We watch the shows, we watch the stars On videos for hours and hours We hardly need to use our ears How music changes through the years Let's hope you never leave old friend Like all good things on you we depend So stick around 'cause we might miss you When we grow tired of all this visual You had your time, you had the power You've yet to have your finest hour Radio (radio) All we hear is radio ga ga Radio goo goo Radio ga ga All we hear is radio ga ga Radio goo goo Radio ga ga All we hear is radio ga ga Radio blah blah Radio, what's new? Someone still loves you Radio ga ga Radio ga ga Radio ga ga You had your time, you had the power You've yet to have your finest hour Radio (radio)

It's a machines world Don't tell me I ain't got no soul When the machines take over It ain't no place for rock and roll They tell me I don't care But deep inside I'm just a man They freeze me they burn me They squeeze me they stress me With smoke blackened pistons of steel they compress me But no one but no one but no one can wrest me away Back to humans We have no disease no trouble of mind No thank you or please no regard for the time We never cry we never retreat We have no conception of love or defeat What's that machine noise? It's bytes and megachips for tea It's that machine boys With random access memory Never worry never mind Not for money not for gold It's software is hardware It's heartbeat is time-share It's midwife's a disc drive It's sex life is quantised It's self-perpetuating a parahumanoidarianised Back to humans Back to humans Back to machines Machines Living in a new world Thinking in the past Living in a new world How you gonna last? Machine world Back to humans It's a machines world Thinking in the past (back to humans) Living in a new world How you gonna last? Machine world It's a machine's world Back to humans Living in a new world How you gonna last? Machine world It's a machine's world

Just look at all those hungry mouths we have to feed Take a look at all the suffering we breed So many lonely faces scattered all around Searching for what they need Is this the world we created? What did we do it for Is this the world we invaded Against the law So it seems in the end Is this what we're all living for today The world that we created You know that everyday a helpless child is born Who needs some loving care inside a happy home Somewhere a wealthy man is sitting on his throne Waiting for life to go by Wooh, is this the world we created? We made it all our own Is this the world we devastated, right to the bone If there's a God in the sky looking down What can he think of what we've done To the world that he created
10.
All our times have come Here but now they're gone Seasons don't fear the reaper Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain, we can be like they are Come on baby, don't fear the reaper Baby take my hand, don't fear the reaper We'll be able to fly, don't fear the reaper Baby I'm your man La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la Valentine is done Here but now they're gone Romeo and Juliet Are together in eternity, Romeo and Juliet 40, 000 men and women everyday, Like Romeo and Juliet 40, 000 men and women everyday, Redefine happiness Another 40, 000 coming everyday, We can be like they are Come on baby, don't fear the reaper Baby take my hand, don't fear the reaper We'll be able to fly, don't fear the reaper Baby I'm your man La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la Love of two is one Here but now they're gone Came the last night of sadness And it was clear she couldn't go on Then the door was open and the wind appeared The candles blew then disappeared The curtains flew then he appeared, saying don't be afraid Come on baby, and she had no fear And she ran to him, then they started to fly They looked backward and said goodby, she had become like they are She had taken his hand, she had become like they are Come on baby, don't fear the reaper

Larry, call a load of smoke in I wanna lose a couple days We've probably never struggled coping but I never want to Promise again that I would call her Forget the time 'cause I'm seven hours behind It's probably good I didn't call, though But I always want to And I'd beg you But you know I'm never home And I love you but I need another year alone And I've tried to Ignore it every time you phone But I never come close And I don't think through things I never get time 'Cause I don't think things through Larry call a load of smoke in I wanna disappear for days We've probably never struggled sleeping but I never want to Promise again that I would call her Forget the time 'cause I'm seven hours behind It's probably good I didn't call though But I always want to And I'd beg you But you know I'm never home And I love you but I need another year alone And I've tried to Ignore it every time you phone But I never come close I don't think through things I never get time 'Cause I don't think things through I don't think through things I never get time 'Cause I don't think things through And I'd beg you But you know I'm never home And I love you but I need another second to myself And I've tried to Ignore it every time you phone But I never come close I'd beg you but you know I'm never home (I don't think through things, I never get time) and I love you but I need another year alone (I don't think through things, I never get time) and I've tried to ignore it every time you phone But I never come close
12.
I missed you dearly, Thought I was nearly, there forever, at last together Is our time fleeting? Is even meeting, A healthy idea or am I getting too near? When you gonna run away, When you gonna learn to say, You've got to live your life, Remember don't give up the fight. You better not hideaway, You really gotta live each day, You have to live your life, It’s not a threat just some advice Don’t try to fight it (fight it fight it) I’m here for tonight (tonight) And I’ll waiting for you until we meet again I know it’s scary, (scary) But don’t be wary (don't be wary) If we don’t have that long let’s not waste our time feeling wrong. This isn’t the end I’m your lifelong friend Sure it’s been a while But I’ll be here when you smile When you gonna run away, When you gonna learn to say, You've got to live your life, Remember don't give up the fight. You better not hideaway, You really gotta live each day, You have to live your life, It’s not a threat just some advice When you gonna run away, When you gonna learn to say, You've got to live your life, Remember don't give up the fight. You better not hideaway, You really gotta live each day, You have to live your life, It’s not a threat just some advice

When you gotta run you better run ( but just don’t fade away) This chapter’s done, might not have won ( but just don’t fade away) If life gets rough, pause if you must (But just don’t fade away) Just take some time, you can unwind (But just don’t fade away) When you gotta run you better run ( but just don’t fade away) This chapter’s done, might not have won ( but just don’t fade away) If life gets rough, pause if you must (But just don’t fade away) Just take some time, you can unwind (But just don’t fade away) Don’t let the space between us grow so far You can’t take it back Fences can't be mended til we reconcile and learn to take this weight We need to get this back on track Get it back on track But no matter the fall We always seem to pull through So don‘t fade away Don’t fade away It’s been so long since we had to draw the line You can’t take it back (can’t ever take it back) No way out now we’ve burnt that path last time we’ll have to just press on We need to get this back Get it back on track But with our backs to the wall We always seem to pull through So don‘t fade away Don’t fade away Two lives diverge, but in time they reconnect We fought and got it back on track Got it back on track And though we've been through it all We always seem to pull through So don‘t fade away Don’t fade away
