Simple Minds

Overground, underground, pulsating through
Street parade, day arcade, no cloning you
Uniform, won't conform, hero who dies
Find a boy, kill a toy, get no reply

Changeling, we're changeling for you
They're coming out for you
Changeling, we're changeling for you
They're coming out for you

Vision, lost, out of control, lost
Vision, lost, out of control, lost

Down in the club, beau bells can ring
Look good in blue, help me to sing
Expose and fade away, contact erased
Call a friend, tailor made, do as I say

Changeling, we're changeling for you
They're coming out for you
Changeling, we're changeling for you
They're coming out for you

Vision, lost, out of control, lost
Vision, lost, out of control, lost

Overground, underground
Overground, underground

Down in the club
Down in the club
Down in the club
Club
