(Wang Chung)

I wanna paint your portrait in bright color
I wanna paint the lines in red and blue
I wanna make your eyes appear like starlings
Saying, "Darling, I love you!"
I wanna set your face upon a landscape
I wanna show the love and toil and sweat
I wanna show your beauty like a crystal
In an all-night launderette

Chorus:
Oh this line is the flat horizon

(Wang Chung)

The world in which we live is peopled by people who
Fuck, shit, screw everybody, don't care, swear
Do things without a care, are seen everywhere
And write about each other

The world in which we live is peopled by people who
Can't afford to eat, can't make ends meet
Got nowhere to sleep, can't feel the heat
Can't get out
Can't find a voice to scream it out

(Wang Chung)

Meet me in a restaurant
Meet me on the top of the world
Meet me and we'll talk the language of love

I'll meet you anywhere you want
I'll meet you on a ballroom floor
Meet me and we'll float to a level above

Chorus:
I wish you'd stop what you're doing
And get on the case
We could blow this existence
Right out into space
And share a sweet isolation

Meet me in a restaurant
Meet me on the top of the world
Meet me and we'll talk the language of love

I'll meet you anywhere you want
I'll meet you on a ballroom floor
Meet me and we'll float to a level above

Chorus:
I wish you'd drop what you're doing
And get on the case
We could blow this existence
Right out into space
And share a sweet isolation
Let's go there today

(Wang Chung)

On her televison, on her mamma's radio
She could paint a picture
More alive than all she ought to know
Her imagination running wild, she let it grow
In her imagination
Oh she felt she loved him so

Chorus:
The eyes of the girl are following me
Looking for the man that she pinned on me
The tears for a love that could never be
Now it's all over
They're raining on me

I'd drive a million miles

To be with you tonight

So if you're feeling low

Turn up your radio

The words we use are strong
They make reality

But now the music's on

Oh baby dance with me

Rip it up

Move down

Rip it up

Move it down to the ground

Rip it up

Cool down

Rip it up

Don't hang it on the borderline

CHORUS

Oh everybody have fun tonight

(Wang Chung / Peter Wolf)

We met as friends of friends while still at school
I was all you ever really knew
When we met it was like a dream
For all I knew we could not fail
But now I know of your betrayal

Living in the older part of town
I worked all hours I could to bring us 'round
Your career was alive for you
But deep inside I watched it fail
And now I know of your betrayal

(michael leeson / peter vale / jack hues / peter wolf)

The longer love survives
The more it’s easy to be blind
When it is obvious it’s over
I put my trust in you
I spent my love and I thought I knew
But now things just don’t look the same
I paid the price with a love I thought was strong
Counting on you I was wrong

Chorus:
Just like a fool and his money
