[Verse 1]
Hey guys, turn it up to get sleazy
Twist it in a vice, hey
Nobody said it was easy
Just use your naked eyes, oh
How to see and how to hide it
How to save it
Well, maybe, maybe, maybe
You can take it and eat it, and chew your life supply

[Chorus]
Where's the real life in your illusion?
On the dark side your power's in confusion
Do the dance, do the demolition
And lose the chance to hear when you don't listen

[Verse 2]
Don't you feel edgy?
Bite your lips and bleed
Conversation is empty
Abandonеd in the freeze
Freedom is your condemnation
Free to say: Wеll, maybe
Maybe, maybe, maybe
You can take it or leave it
Just need a little hit tonight, yeah

[Chorus]
Where's the real life in your illusion?
On the dark side your power's in confusion
Do the dance, do the demolition
And lose the chance to hear when you don't listen

[Bridge]
Maybe, maybe, maybe
You can take it or leave it
Just need a little hit tonight, yeah

[Chorus]
Where's the real life in your illusion?
On the dark side your power's in confusion
Do the dance, do the demolition
And lose the chance to hear when you don't listen

Where's the real life in your illusion?
On the dark side your power's in confusion
You do the dance, do the demolition
And lose the chance to hear when you don't listen, yeah

[Outro]
Hear me when you listen
You don't hear me when you listen
Hear me when you listen
You don't hear me when you listen (Come on, come on)
Hear me when you listen (Ah)
Hear me when you listen (Come on, come on)
Hear me when you listen
(You don't, you don't) Hear me when you listen
You don't hear, you don't hear
Yeah

[Spoken Outro]
So how y'all doing?
How you doing? Wow
You make an awful lot of noise
An awful lot of noise

DURAN DURAN has a total of over 80 million records sold, 18 American hit singles, 30 UK top 30 tunes, and a global presence which guarantees them huge concert audiences on five continents. They’ve managed to fuse pop music, art, technology and fashion with a unique sense of style and confidence. Princess Diana also admitted that Duran Duran was her favourite Band among others.

Bassist John Taylor has said the original vision for the band’s sound was ‘to fuse the Sex Pistols and Chic’ after hearing those two bands back-to-back on a pub jukebox one night.
