Beyond Metropolis Lyrics & Chords By Shriekback
I was afraid of this
Round every corner there's a head on a stick
This town ain't what it used to be
This sentiment is moving me
Beyond Metropolis
Beggaring belief
The Lords and Ladies pick the meat from the bones
Ideas above my station try
To levitate and learn to fly
Beyond Metropolis
Moving on, moving on, moving on
Coming home, coming home, coming home
Can you picture this?
Exnovotechnikageopolis
All coloured noise and black light kiss
Panchromosoniradiopolis
Or down a deep and dark abyss
Subterranononphotopolis
It could feed all fears and phobias
Mescalinomedichemicotopia
All human life will seethe and hiss
Cosmovivageniparahystopolis
I swear to you this place exists
It's just beyond Metropolis
Something has to give
Even the underdogs are baying for blood
We're in the fear and loathing show
And now it's going on the road
Beyond Metropolis
Better say goodbye
Before the heathens break down the gate
There's only scorched earth left behind
Heaven knows what we will find
Beyond Metropolis
Moving on, moving on, moving on
Coming home. coming home. coming home
Can you pray for this?
Superphilicredobenedeusangeles
From raging flux and atom fizz
Metamorphopolyquantumopolis
To a city of plans and maps and lists
Stylolexicartagraphicopolis
In a landscape so superior
Terrafluvimonsflorabellatopia
The everlasting quest for bliss
Intoxivinopharmanarcobibendopolis
In the end it all comes down to this
Somewhere beyond Metropolis
Can you feel it yet?
Emperteleosmosynersentiopolis
Compass spin and Geiger clicks
Polargyrofluximagnetopolis
The power to make the axes shift
Hydroleothermadynogasohehopolis
The forlorn intelligentsia
Cerebrasophocognimelantragiopia
The steady on hardworking stiffs
Manuferroxylofactopragmatopolis
A rose by any name smells of risk
It grows beyond Metropolis
Exnovotechnikageopolis
Chromosoniradiopolis
Terranononphotopolis
Linomedichemicotopia
Vivageniparahystopolis
Philicredobenedeusangeles
Morphopolyquantumopolis
Lexicartographicopolis
Fluvimonsflorabellatopia
Vinopharmanarcobibendopolis
Philicredobenedeusangeles
Morphopolyquantumopolis
In the end it all comes down to this
Somewhere beyond Metropolis
