| Been living in the city too long now
|
| Even my lungs have started to groan
|
| Everybody is singing their own song
|
| Sometimes I wanna sing alone
|
| Never been a primadonna
|
| Never seem to wanna be the one to complain
|
| Enough’s too much and now I’m gonna
|
| Stop the madness soon before it drives me insane
|
| So, take me where the sun won’t shine on me
|
| Take me where my conscience won’t go
|
| Take me where the sun won’t shine on me
|
| Don’t tell me I’m backing out 'cause I don’t wanna know
|
| Everyone around this town is so angry
|
| Blaring horns, swearing, shaking fists
|
| If everybody in the world was a hit man
|
| We’d wipe each other off each other’s hit lists
|
| Who wants to stand and be counted
|
| All anger ever amounted to was lines on your face
|
| I don’t want to be the one to start the shouting
|
| I’m part of this society and I know my place
|
| So, take me where the sun won’t shine on me
|
| Take me where my conscience won’t go
|
| Take me where the sun won’t shine on me
|
| Don’t tell me I’m backing out 'cause I don’t wanna know
|
| Everything around this town is so boring
|
| Nothing changes, nothing doesn’t stay the same
|
| Ten years ago when we had high ideals
|
| We couldn’t wait to play the protest game
|
| But now we have our thing together
|
| Brand new leather, three bank accounts
|
| Who cares about the starving millions
|
| We’re just happy that our cheques don’t bounce
|
| So, take me where the sun won’t shine on me
|
| Take me where my conscience won’t go
|
| Take me where the sun won’t shine on me
|
| Don’t tell me I’m backing out 'cause I don’t wanna know |
