Underground Lyrics by Men at Work

Contraband: The Best of Men at Work

1982

Don't take the fire from your eyes
Must make them feel the heat
They build castles underground for the rich and politic elite
Keep all the home fires burning
Don't let the lights go out
The streets are empty, and there's nobody about
We'll be alright in the morning time, yeah
We're doing fine, I'll see you on the night line
There's no need for you to fight, boys
Hang up all your guns
Find your mask and as best as you can, get ready to run
Keep all the food lines moving
Don't come cryin' for more
The signs were there, you should have bought connections before
We'll be alright in the morning time, yeah
We're doing fine, I'll see you on the nightline
It's such a big joke
It's the talk of the town
All the planets to whom I spoke
Are trying their best to play it down
Don't take the fire from your eyes
Must make them feel the heat
But my head's unsteady
I can't seem to keep my feet
We'll be alright in the morning time, yeah
We're doing fine, I'll see you on the nightline
Jump off the Eiffel Tower
Just have a look around
Move fast, in the tunnels of the underground
Move fast, in the tunnels of the underground
Let's go!
