Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Lies (All Through The 80's) Lyrics
We're all gonna live out the Hollywood dreamEverything's gonna be just what it seemsGonna find a better way to run our carsAll through the Eighties'Cause the race is on, we're gonna land on MarsAll through the EightiesThe Video Screen will open up the doorAll through the EightiesInformation - there'll be more and moreAll through the EightiesWill the man on the street finally know the scoreBut I saw a kid with no smile on his face todayWhere is my place in this bright future, I heard him sayI've lost my hope there isn't anywhere to play(Pull up the trees and put up a parking lot)The play's been written we'll all be in the castAll through the EightiesAnd our feet are gonna point away from the pastAll through the EightiesWill supersonic travel be our ticket to rideWe'll have cruise missiles, they think as they flyBut I saw a kid with no smile on his face todayWhere is my place in this bright future, I heard him sayI've lost my hope there isn't anywhere to play(Pull up the trees and put up a parking lot)Time will go and the years fly byAll through the EightiesAnd we'll have another slice of American PieAll through the EightiesCredit card living, push button cashAll through the EightiesWe'll pay our money and we'll take our trashAll through the EightiesAnd another generation will "Talk about their Generation"But I saw a kid with no smile on his face todayWhere is my place in this bright future, I heard him sayI've lost my hope there isn't anywhere to play(Pull up the trees and put up a parking lot)I saw a kid with no smile on his face todayWhere is my place in this bright future, I heard him sayI saw a kid with no smile on his face todayWhere is my place in this bright future, I heard him say[fading]
