Life in the city is getting so tough I keep losing my face in the crowd Innocent bystanders' realization, no Superman up in the clouds Doesn't it show - you ought to know Electra City, the footsteps in the concrete show Life's getting heavy, can't you see we'll have to go It's getting so bad when I'm out on the street There's a desperate look on each face And nobody smiles cos it's way out of style And they've got to get back in the race Can't you see how we've got to go now We've gotta get back to the coast again I've gotta lay roots on the peaceful shoreline I can't stand by and watch my living stop I can see there's a cloud in the sky where the hot sun should be And you ask what the hell is the cause of the smell I can tell you right now it's the sea Didn't you go? Didn't you know?
