This dead city Longs to be This dead city Longs to be free Seven screamin' horses Melt down in the sun Buildin' scenes on empty dreams And smokin' them one by one Hee haa The dead city Longs to be, yea, yea This dead city, yea Longs to be livin', ohh Is it any wonder There's squalor in the sun? With their broken schemes and their lotteries They never get nowhere Haa haa Is it any wonder They're spittin' at the sun? God's parasites in abandoned sites And they never have much fun Yeah Haa You don't need me? You don't need me? Yea I You don't need me? Well Mika I'll take you [incomprehensible] You know, you just try If I was a blind man Would you see for me? Or would you confuse the nature of my blues And refuse a hand to me Or is it any wonder Cryin' in the sun? Is it any wonder I'm cryin' in the sun? Well I built my dreams on your empty scenes Now I'm burnin' them one by one Haa hmm Oh this a damn city Oh this a dead city Immortal city Motor city Success city Longs to be Longs to be Longs to be Free Free Free
