letra de civilization - barry adamson

[verse 1]
i’m up above the city
and i’m down beneath the stars
i must have broke the heart strings
of a thousand bass guitars
i’ve wandered through a wasteland
that was passing for a glimpse of heaven’s door

[verse 2]
and i must have met a millionfold
of humans in disguise
and now they aim a loaded pistol
right between the eyes
and i count the cost of freedom
and i realize that heaven is no more
[chorus]
bring me
civilization
trample on the ones
who would destroy the very nation
that turned me into what i am
an effigy of the bеautiful and d-mned
i’ll show
no hesitation
to bring beforе a darkened world
the sweetest revelation
skip a hundred light years
as i hurry home to meet my baby’s needs

[verse 3]
i’m not a monk
i live in the city
today i strolled into the town
everyone’s so pretty
but then shots rang out and i hit the ground
before they came and took my piece away

[verse 4]
they beat me and i said enough
okay, i’ll do the time
it’s easy and it’s obvious
what’s yours just isn’t mine
now i sit in wonderland still wondering
how i got here all the same
[chorus]
bring me
civilization
to take away the pain and hurt
and anger and frustration
that falls like rubber nipples from the trees
where once i danced upon the leaves
i’ll show
no remonstration
whatever you decide my fate to be
no indignation
as long as i can beat the rush
and make it home to meet my baby’s needs

[bridge]
what is a man
if he ain’t got a soul
i’m doing all i can
yeah, to make this house a home

[verse 5]
but i’m up above the city
and i’m down beneath the stars
my lawyer says there’s no parole
behind these prison bars
the days they pass so slowly
that i k!lled a man who wanted me to die
[verse 6]
a single pack of cigarettes
is all you need to breathe
you get so godd-mned used to it
you’ll find it hard to leave
blood in, blood out, stick with the gang
and you’ll serve your [?] time with ease

[chorus]
bring me
civilization
’cause now i am the one
who could destroy the very nation
that turned me into what i am
an effigy of the beautiful and d-mned
(and they say that)
i’ll show
no hesitation
to make the world a darker place
without a reservation
when all i simply tried to do
was hurry home to meet my baby’s needs
