Hysteria lyrics

No future they say
But must it be that way?
Now is calling
The city is human
Chorus :
Blind youth take hope
You're no Joe Soap
Your time is due
Big fun come soon
We've had it easy, we should be glad
High-rise living's not so bad
(Chorus)
Dehumanisation
Is such a big word
It's been around since
Richard The Third
Dehumanisation
It's easy to say
But if you're not a hermit

(Burden/Callis/Oakey)
It's a beautiful night
A cool breeze in the air
Got the keys to my car
But I don't want to go nowhere
I'm not at all bored
But I've plenty of time to spare
There's only one thing that I know
Would take me there
I've got one thing to say to you
I guess you just don't realise
When you see me look at me
There's more than friendship in my eyes

I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
Moonlit sky casts shadows down
Romance in the air is strong
Something's telling me
I need your love
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
And that's a fact
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
Where are you at?
Looking glass reflects the moon
Your love's missing from this room

Funny sometimes how you let
The little things
Get in your way
Funny how you just can't talk
Although sometimes
You've got so much to say
Silly when you know you've got the thing
That everybody
Needs so bad
Stupid if you let those jealous people
Telling lies
Make you sad

I thought I heard a voice
Telling me go home
No need to run no more
Needn't be alone

I don't care what you do

(Callis/Oakey/Wright)
When he saw her getting of the bus
It seemed to wipe away the years
Her face was older, just a little rough
But her eyes were still so clear
He drank his coffee and he hurried out
Across before she walked away
Then he approached her like a little child
Too scared for what he had to say
"Hello, Louise,
Remember me?
Now should we part
Or stay awhile?

When he saw her getting of the bus

Her face was older, just a little rough

He drank his coffee and he hurried out
Across before she walked away
Then he approached her like a little child
Too scared for what he had to say

"Hello Louise,
Remember me?
Now should we part
Or stay awhile?

Take your time and make me love you good
Take your time and make me love you good
Take your time and make me love you good
Take your time and make me love you good

Love me 'til I want no more
Make me feel the spirit 'til I have to go

Rock me again and again and again and again and again and again
Rock me again and again and again and again and again and again

Swang
Grab your partner
Swang her round
Swang that girl all upside-down
And if that girl won't
Swang with me
I'll swang me another girl, yes sirree
Swang me a girl
Who thinks she's cool
Swang her 'til her face turns blue
And if that girl can't
Swang with me
I'll swang me another girl, yes sirree
Swang
Real city dancing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Swang
Real city dancing
Yeah

Faced with the choice
What would you say?
The path of least resistance
It seems the only way
But can we look a little further?
Too little far I think
Self-belief's the answer
And not another drink
The safe method, the only way
You rationalise your course
Stay part of the crowd
And never find the source
Feel wanted, feel numb
Just stay as you are
The truth is - comfort kills

Take time to see the wonders of the world
To see the things you've only ever heard of
Dream life the way you think it ought to be
See things you thought you'd never ever see
Take a cruise to China or a train to Spain
Go round the world again and again
Meet a girl on a boat meet a boy on a train
And fall in love without the pain
Refrain :
Everybody needs love and adventure
