Citizen Dance Of Youth lyrics

Citizen
A cure to kill the east
A disease of the west
Romance is no escape
But I`ll escape you
The manufacturing sound
Complaining to ourselves
You`re cutting up our friends
Making love to our sisters
Another endless day
Another daze
But I`m losing track
The train goes off the rails

Dance Of The Youth
Youth want to dance

Citizen
The tribal war begins
But radio`s a God
Industrial money
God is industry
Dance of youth
Citizen you know what we`re after
Know what we`re after
Know what we`re after

Citizen
The state that we`ve come to love
Love`s a crime against the state
I hate the sound of bells
Communications lost
Something we`re after
I hate democracy
One more contact lost
Love
A crime against the state
The state we`ve come to love
Oh electric candle light
What time is it over there
We got to wear a badge
We`re losing track of days

Dance of the youth
Youth want to dance

Citizen
I`ll share a room with you
You`re getting so very thin
Did we ask for this
Are you rationing our water
Dance of the youth
Our food is getting cold
And you`re getting colder
I see you
I`m not so unaware
Citizen

Citizen
An American
Got got a camera
Takes a picture
Citizen
Drum
Citizen
Drum
Citizen
Drum
To drum to drum
