This is a tale of a Northern Soul
|
Looking to find his way back home
|
He's coming from that same old road
|
You know the one your folds don't know
|
|
I want to see if you know me
|
I was born in a rented room
|
My mother didn't get no flowers
|
Dad didn't approve of me, do you?
|
|
I'm alive with something inside of me
|
And I don't think I'm coming back
|
So come on come in inside of me
|
Let's spread it all around
|
|
Give me your powder and pills
|
I want to see if they cure my ills
|
I've no time for love and devotion
|
|
No time for old fashioned potion
|
|
Take a look into my eyes
|
I tell you so many lies and then I'll let you go into the night
|
And I don't think I'm coming down
|
I'm alive with something inside of me...
|
And I can't seem to get it out
|
|
I'm gonna die alone in bed
|
This is a tale of a northern soul
|
Looking for his way back home
|
And my friend said, "Come in side of me
|
And your speakers are telling the truth
|
Coming through and into your room on a river of sound"
|
|
This is a tale of a northern soul looking for his way back home
|
|
And if he sees it I know I'll know (repeat)
|
|
And there's fighting on the street below
|
I know there's fighting on the street below
|
But I don't care coz I'm a Northern Soul
|
And I'm looking for a way back home
|
|
Too busy staying alive (repeat)
|
|
Too busy living a lie, too busy living my life
|
Too busy staying alive
|
