Lyrics Metropolis - The Motors

Metropolis

Once upon a time when we imagined
Many years ago when time was young
What kind of magic did we see there?
Only Heaven knows
Not so long ago, there was a small town
Suddenly, a star began to grow
And if you look up in the sky
It’s high rise
The trees began to disappear
Department stores were born
And let me tell you something, dear
There’s escalators everywhere
Metropolis, Metropolis, you just had to be
Metropolis, Metropolis, a page in history
Metropolis, oh, what a curse, oh, what a buzz in the city
Metropolis, just look what you’ve done to me
The night is ablaze with the glory
Another page burns with the dawn
Sunset days from my hometown
Have long been gone
The beggar lies down with the rich man
Together, they dream in the past
And if you walk a rich girl down the street
It’s high class
They’ve got her name inside a bank
A memory concern
Where people play the numbers game
With calculators everywhere
Metropolis, Metropolis, you just had to be
Metropolis, Metropolis, a page in history
Metropolis, oh, what a curse, oh, what a buzz in the city
Metropolis, just look what you’ve done to me
Not so long ago, there was a small town
Suddenly, a star began to grow
And if you look up high into the sky
It’s high rise
The trees began to disappear
Department stores were born
And let me tell you something, dear
There’s escalators everywhere
Metropolis, Metropolis, you just had to be
Metropolis, Metropolis, a page in history
Metropolis, oh, what a curse, oh, what a buzz in the city
Metropolis, just look what you’ve done
Metropolis, Metropolis, you just had to be
Metropolis, Metropolis, a page in history
Metropolis, Metropolis, you just had to be
Metropolis, Metropolis, just look what you’ve done
Look what you’ve done to me
