Lyrics for Song: Walk It Down
Lyrics for Album: Little Creatures [1985]
I.. am just a number
& I... hang onto what I got
You say what you want to,
& I I I I'm just trying to stay alive
I... put myself together
People say get away
Somebody will turn you in
Life, life without surrender
Togetherness, ecstasy is what I need
When love and unserstanding,
Are ultimate crimes,
[And i said] walk it down,
Talk it down
[oh] sympathy, luxury.
Somebody will take you there.
Walk it down,
Talk it down
[oh] sympathy, luxury.
Somebody will take you there.
She says she remembers time
Long time ago
We belong together,
& I I I I turn up the radio
Lies, lies and propaganda,
I'm gonna tell you what i need
Life, life without surrender,
Togetherness, ecstasy is what i need
I got yours, and you got mine,
And i can swim, but should fly.
Walk it down,
Talk it down
[oh] sympathy, luxury.
Somebody will take you there
Walk it down,
Talk it down
[oh] sympathy, luxury.
Somebody will take you there.
Ain't no crime to believe,
I took my money, and bet my life.
What you see is what you get,
But it sure aint what we need.
Hey!
Walk it down
Talk it down
[oh] sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there.
Walk it down
Talk it down
[oh] sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there.
Walk it down
Talk it down
[oh] sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there.
Walk it down
Talk it down
[---Hey, hey, hey hey--]
[oh] sympathy, luxury
Somebody will take you there.
