Tony Banks - Shortcut to Somewhere lyrics
The stars ignite as the sun sets
 And disappears in a river of dancing molten gold
 In the moon rise the lion steps out tonight
 No law, no sin, no rip it up and start again
 No tears, no pain, no fear, no more chains
 The office walls are closing in
 As the telex machines perversely sing ignored
 You're hypnotised and the lion roars within
 No law, no sin, no rip it up and start again
 No tears, no pain, no fear, no more chains
 Why are we here? Not just to live and breathe
 I cannot sleep, I need the beast
 I need some action, I need destruction
 I'll return to the wild, I'll return to the child I said
 No sense of emotion adrift in the ocean
 Here we are knee-deep in stars, knee-deep in stars
 City nights caressed in a shroud
 All is quiet and the silence is tentatively loud
 You kiss the streets as you crawl on your hands and feet
 No law, no sin, no rip it up and start again
 No tears, no pain, no fear, no more chains
 Why are we here? Not just to live and breathe
 I cannot sleep, I need the beastTony Banks - Shortcut to Somewhere - http://motolyrics.com/tony-banks/shortcut-to-somewhere-lyrics.html
 I need some action, I need destruction
 I'll return to the wild, I'll return to the child I said
 No sense of emotion adrift in the ocean
 Here we are knee-deep in stars, knee-deep in stars
 Moving in the darkness
 Phosphorus eyes, jungle pride
 A glisten of madness, a wave of sadness
 The lion never sleeps, he's never at peace
 He stalks so boldly, so nervous, so coldly
 Vicious serenity, perverse intensity
 Head bowed stretched proudly, embrace the earth
 Same blood, same soul, same breath, same goal
 The office walls are closing in, feel the sensation
 Telex machines perversely sing raw communication
 And you're hypnotised, a transformation
 The lion steps out tonight
 And you kiss the damp streets with ease
 As you crawl on your hands and feet
 Naked is the beast and the beast is forever free
 You are the lion, you are the lion of symmetry
 Golden warrior savage, savage creature
 You are the lion, you are the lion of symmetry
 No law, no sin, no rip it up and start again
 No tears, no pain, no fear, no more chains...
