Steve Harley - Before They Crash The Universe lyrics

They came to my town They came with attitudes on fire They put their arms down This was the gun for hire Lost in this moment Lost in this unfamiliar place I counted no men I couldn't find a face This is the time, this is the day We switch off the dead night This is the time, this is the day We switch on the white light Before they crash the universe Hung-up and dried out Left in this elemental state Shook up and cried out This is an awful fate And in that moment There in that hard, torrential rain We cried for no man Inspired to live again This is the time, this is the day We switch off the dead night This is the time, this is the day We switch on the white light Before they crash the universe They came to this town They came to tax our dreams away And on the way down We pushed their jab away We held this moment Suspended in this perfect state We cried for no man We carved in stone the date This is the time, this is the day We switch off the dead night This is the time, this is the day We switch on the white light Before they crash the universe, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh
