about

Homage to the indie rock ethos of the 80's.

lyrics

Underground.

Now's not the time to feel the doubt
You can't sit it in you can't sit it out
Think about what would have happened if
we both broke away from the same old riff

Now you seem like Robin with Batman gone
like a songbird with half a song
And if we can't seem to say hello
we can't say "Why me lord?"

I gave love to the underground
Look me in the eye now baby
I gave love to the underground
You can't take it away

Get perspective when you run the door
What it is a person comes here for
Some are innocent although they know
some just got nowhere else to go
Some are corrupt falling through the sky
some come with a silky thigh
You shoulda quit when you had the chance
with it falling in your lap now

I gave love to the underground
In another lifetime baby
I gave love to the underground
You can't take it away

Now it's getting to the end of days
neither of us willing to mend our ways
We can agree to disagree
There's more than one way to be free
But would it kill you to just be nice
Stop dispensing with the bad advice
Was no good then it's no better now
How many years behind a broken plough

I gave love to the underground
Look me in the eye now baby
I gave love to the underground
You can't take it away

I gave love to the underground
In another lifetime baby
I gave love to the underground
You can't take it away
