Telekon (Live 1980)Gary Numan

Songwriter: Gary Numan

Producer: Gary Numan

[Verse 1]
Where is my outline I start to fade
No concentration means "fail" these days
I leave the table saying "I am real"
I feel the pressure like your eyes on me
Don't mention that name and books on love
I can't be sure, I can't be sure

[Chorus]
You ain't the real one, you ain't the real one
You ain't the real one, you ain't the real one
You ain't the real one, you ain't the real one
You ain't the real one, you ain't the real one

[Verse 2]
You quote from "anxious" and things we do
I need protection from the likes of you
Do you begin to see that I don't know?
I live on memories that are hard to find
Send me a card and write "I think of you"
I'll say you lied, I'll say you're lying

[Chorus]
You are, you are
You are, you are
You are, you are
You are, you are

[Verse 3]
Tell me a secret I'm sure to fall
My dog runs A.W.O.L. I blame you all
We're in formation saying "safe, safe, safe"
Turn up my collar and mix with dark
The speaker turns on me spot her eyes
It's hard to breathe, it's hard to breathe

[Chorus]
You ain't the real one, you ain't the real one
You ain't the real one, you ain't the real one
You ain't the real one, you ain't the real one

[Outro]
You are, you are
You are, you are
You are, you are
You are, you are
You are, you are, you are, you are
Thank you
