"Heaven" lyrics
"Heaven"
I'm in heaven
And I'm surrounded
By a logjam of children floating face-down in fours
We have names for these people
I'm in heaven
And I'm surrounded
By a gun at the window
A flag at the door
The children are sending
Young mothers to war
They run, ask their father
What killing is for
But... he's watching a movie
I'm in heaven
And I'm surrounded
I'm in heaven
And I'm surrounded
By a million excuses
To further the cause
Of basic injustice
I'm in heaven
And I'm surrounded
By a nation that worships
Its bankers and thieves
And the kind of illusion
An imbecile weaves
Their most powerful weapon
Is called the TV
They say "that's entertainment"
I'm in heaven
And I'm surrounded
I'm in heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in heaven
Hey, this is heaven
I'm in heaven
And I'm surrounded
I'm in heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in heaven
Hey, this is heaven

Berlin - "Masquerade" The painted faces on the street
Caricatures of long ago
Oh they were young and oh so sweet
Down beyond the boulevard
Knock on doors and empty halls
And still sometimes remember
The masquerade's...
Asia - "Only Time Will Tell" You're leaving now
It's in your eyes
There's no disguising it
It really comes as no surprise
To find that you planned it all along
I see it now
Becomes so clear
Your insincerity
And me all...
The Boomtown Rats - "Up All Night" Up all night
Ooh za za
Ooh staying up all night
African jungle
Big city street
The only real difference is in
The people you meet
Up all night
Ooh za za
Ooh staying up all night
It's an agreeable...
Tubeway Army - "Down In The Park" Down in the park with the machmen
meet the machines playing kill by numbers
Down in the park with a friend called five
I was in a car crash or was it the war
But I've never been quite the same
Little...
Big Country - "In A Big Country" Ha
I've never seen you look like this without a reason
Another promise fallen through, another season passes by you
Shock
I never took the smile away from anybody's face
And that's a desperate way...
