Wild boys, wild boys, wild boys
Wild boys
Wild! (wild)
Boys! (boys)

The wild boys are calling on their way back from the fire
In august moon's surrender to a dust cloud on the rise
Wild boys fallen far from glory, reckless and so hungered
On the razors edge you trail because there's murder (murder)
By the roadside in a sore afraid new world

They tried to break us, looks like they'll try again

Wild boys.. never lose it
Wild boys.. never chose this way
Wild boys.. never close your eyes
Wild boys.. always shine


You got sirens for a welcome, there's bloodstain for your pain
And your telephone been ringing while you're dancing in the rain
Wild boys wonder where is glory where is all you angels
Now the figureheads have fell?
And lovers war with arrows over secrets they could tell

They tried to tame you, looks like they'll try again

(chorus) (chorus) (chorus)

(words and music: duran duran)

Out on the tar plains, the glides are moving
All looking for a new place to drive
You sit beside me so newly charming
Sweating dewdrops glisten freshing your side

And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress - all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart

Way down the lane away, living for another day
The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze
Swim seagull in the sky towards that hollow western isle
My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze


(chorus) (chorus)

Sing blue silver

And watching lovers part, i feel you smiling
What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind
To tear out from your eyes, with a thought to stiffen brooding lies
And i'll only watch you leave me further behind


(chorus) (chorus)

Sing blue silver
Sing, sing.. blue silver

(theres more to this kind of camouflage)
(more than just colour and shape)
(who's going now, in to a classiomatic? )

(words and music: duran duran)

So soon just after you've gone
My senses sharpen
But it always takes so damn long
Before i feel how much my eyes have darkened

Fear hangs in a plane of gunsmoke
Drifting in our room
So easy to disturb, with a thought, with a whisper
With a careless memory, with a careless memory

On the table, signs of love lies scattered
And the walls break, with a crashing within
It's not as though you really mattered to me
But being close, how could i let you go
Without some feeling, some precious sympathy following

Fear hangs in a plane of gunsmoke
Drifting in our room
So easy to disturb with a thought with a whisper
With a careless memory, with a careless memory

I walk out into the sun, try to find a new day
But the whole place just screams in my eyes
Where are you now 'cause i don't want to meet you
I think i'd die, i think i'd laugh at you
I know i'd cry, what am i supposed to do follow you

Outside the thoughts coming flooding back now
I just try to forget you

So easy to disturb with a thought with a whisper
With a careless memory, with a careless memory
With a careless memory, look out
Look out
Look out
Look out

I made a run, i run out yesterday
Tried to find my mountain hideaway
Maybe next year, maybe no go

I know you're watching me every minute of the day, yeah
I've seen the signs and the looks and pictures
That give your game away, yeah

There's a dream that strings the road
With broken glass for us to hold
And i cut so far before i had to say

Please, please tell me now
Is there something i should know?
Is there something i should say?
That would make you come my way
Do you feel the same 'cos you don't let it show

People stare and cross the road from me
And jungle drums they all clear the way for me
Can you read my mind, can you see in the snow
And fiery demons all dance when you walk through that door
Don't say you're easy on me, you're about as easy as a nuclear war

Please, please tell me now
Is there something i should know?
Is there something i should say?
That would make you come my way
Do you feel the same 'cos you don't let it show

Please, please tell me now
Is there something i should know?
Is there something i should say?
That would make you come my way

Please, please tell me now
Is there something i should know?
Is there something i should say?
That would make you come my way

Please, please tell me now
Can you see what makes me blow?
Can you see how much i die?
Every time it passes by

Please, please tell me now
What it takes to make you show
Is there something i should know?
Is there something i should say?

I've been now sauntering out and down a path sometime.
Come on, it takes me nowhere which i knew
Faces everywhere pulling grins and signs and things
Telling me not there man, it's no go (don't go there boy)

I need a reason (i can't think without one now)
Too much learning got to show
Call it treason (maybe catch her don't know how)
Too many things too much to know


Bring my timing in, seagulls gather on the wind.
Lady screaming, lady leave me out
'cause sometimes people stare (coming down, electric chair)
And steaming crowds they gather and they shout


Don't know why this evil bothers me (take another chance boy carry the
Fight you can take him if you're fast)

So why is he trying to follow me? (didn't i say if you're holdin' on
You'd be laughing at the last)

How many reasons do they need? (i get along fine with them friends of
Mine, but you have to make a choice)

I might just believe this time (you're singing out of tune, but the beats
In time. and it's us who make the noise)

I'm talking for free. i can't stop myself, it's a new religion
I've something to see, i help myself, it's a new religion


Okay my reasoning might be clouded by the sun
But someone sees the departmental lie
You know this peacetime, jabbing fist in stabbing knife
Only get one look before you die


Don't know why this evil follows me (gotta take pay for the saints 'n'
Sinners. in regulation hats 'n scarves 'n things)

So why does he try to bother me? (walking in formation down the lane. they
Carry their cross make a church bell ring)

How many reasons do they need? (army majors pull a mean cool truth
There lying in a swimming pool)

I might just be right this time (searching for the undeniable truth,
That a man is just a fool)
