Cold War lyrics

Tommy Shaw)

I`m tired of your psychology
To bring me to my bended knees
And if I could only talk to you
I`m sure that I could make you see
`Cause time has a way
Of bringing even mountains down, down
Storm clouds are coming
I suggest you head for higher ground

I say you`re a thing of the past
And you ain`t gonna last
No matter what you say or do
It`s all caught up in you

You`re duty-free, you`re tax-exempt
You party with the President
And you dance the dance so naturally
Why not believe you`re heaven-sent
BUt time has a way of bringing
Even mountains down, down, down
There`s a dark cloud a-comin`
I insist you head for higher ground

You talk tal and you get so intense
That you almost make sense
And that`s what scares me the most
You as the host of Celebrity Lies
It`s prime time, baby
Can`t you see in my eyes, it`s a

Cold war-runnin` in the streets
Everybody you meet knows
It`s going down, don`t you know
Cold war-blowing in the air
Everyone everywhere says it`s time
To get ready for a cold war
Don`t you look now
But the skinny boy`s becoming a man

You say it`s the luck of the draw
And you can`t have it all
And I`ll die young trying to make it
Into something that ain`t gonna last
You ought to reconsider
`Cause I`m coming fast with a

Cold war-running in the streets
Everybody you meet
Know`s it`s going down, don`t you know
Cold war-blood is in the air
Everyone everywhere says it`s time
To get ready for a cold war looking at me
>From behind every tree
There`s a scared man running from a
Cold war-don`t you look now
But the skinny boy`s a streetfighting man
