Election day by Arcadia Lyrics: Simon le Bon Music: Arcadia
1ST COUPLET: Wild kind of look to the day Opening eyes impale neon flickers She moon she turning away The city's her slave but he's cheating his mistress She's moody and gray She's mean and she's so restless (so restless)
2ND COUPLET: All over you as they say Rumours or rivals yell at the strike force Hi guys, by the way Are you aware you're being illegal It's making your saviour behaviour look evil 'scuse my timing but say How d'you fit in with this flim, flam and judy
CHORUS: Maximum big surprise Your smile is something new I pull my shirt off and pray We're sacred and bound To suffer the heatwave Pull off my shirt and pray We're coming up on re-election day
3RD COUPLET: Stretching my luck down the way To your invitation stretching my body Use your intuitive play 'cause maybe we have more play time than money
CHORUS: Maximum big surprise She knows something new I pull my shirt off and pray I'm saving myself To suffer the heatwave Pull off my shirt and pray We're coming up on re-election day
BRIDGE: By roads and backways A lover's chance downwind Cut open murmurs and sounds Becalm hands on the skin Carry further oh... Entangled strands all sing Saving some time to slip away We could die oh...
Shouldn't be asking Wild and scheming Could be my election day
CHORUS: Maximum big surprise You know something new I pull my shirt off and pray We're sacred and bound To suffer the heatwave Pull my shirt off and pray We're coming up on re-election day
