Big Country - Eastworld lyrics

I have come from the Eastworld From the concrete and the dust At the end of the empire For the lifting of the curse I have come for your hardware To the strip shows and the bars I have come to see Madonna Swim in rivers filled with cars All bound for miracle land today All bound for miracle land today Western men untie my hands Lead me through the shifting sands All bound for miracle land today Take me to your banker Let me default on my loan Give me twenty years of payments And a debt to call my own Let me camp out on the welfare Dig a hole to get my high Show me rows and rows Of oriental toys that I must buy All bound for miracle land today All bound for miracle land today Western men untie my hands Lead me through the shifting sands All bound for miracle land today The airwaves talk to me deep into the night I trust the voice of Radio Free Europe I have come from the Eastworld With a missile for a god Where my mouth was always empty My feet were barely shod All bound for miracle land today All bound for miracle land today Western men untie my hands Lead me through the shifting sands All bound for miracle land today All bound for miracle land today All bound for miracle land today Western men untie my hands Lead me through the shifting sands All bound for miracle land today
