Duran Duran - Duran Duran (The Wedding Album) Lyrics






Too Much Information

Destroyed by MTV
I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
So much information
The pressure's on the screen
To sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me

Hey TV child look into my eyes
Here by intervention, we want your attention
Promotion boy in a suit and tie
He wants you to use it
You're too shot to lose it
It's pumpin down the cable like never so before
A COLA manufacturer is sponsoring the war
Here comes the news with LOVE from me to you

Destroyed by ABC
I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
So much information
The pressure's on the screen
To sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me

Turn on the tube hits you with a groove
Advertizin muzik we want you to choose it
These teeth are white trainers ULTRA-BRITE
This band is perfect just don't scratch the surface
We covered all the angles the survey people say
Just put us on the cover we'd be smilin anyway
This video was made with LOVE to you

Destroyed by BBC
I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
So much information
The pressure's on the screen
To sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me

Destroyed by MTV
I hate to bite the hand that feeds me
So much information
The pressure's on the screen
To sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me

Dilate your MIND dilate your MIND
Dilate your MIND...

Got to give it to me got to listen to me
Got to give in to me now I'm on the line
I try....

Ordinary World

Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights, the TV, and the radio
Still I can't escape the ghost of you

What has happened to it all?
Crazy, some'd say
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Passion or coincidence
Once prompted you to say
"Pride will tear us both apart"
Well, now pride's gone out the window
Cross the rooftops
Run away
Left me in the vacuum of my heart

What is happening to me?
Crazy, some'd say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

(Just blown away)

Papers in the roadside
Tell of suffering and greed
Fear today, forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here besides the news
Of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk

And I don't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Every world
Is my world (I will learn to survive)
Any world
Is my world (I will learn to survive)
Any world
Is my world

Love Voodoo

When I first met you on the roof
You caught me with your web of youth
But now I know the wicked truth
It's much too late so what's the use in fighting?
You peel me like an onion skin
And then wonder at the state I'm in
One day you'll turn up to begin
And find there's nothing left but innuendo

Beside you others fade away
Like amateurs in love's charade
Much more than just a game you play
These subtle moves become a way of living

Night after night I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate

The queen of sensuality
You shelter me from liberty
It's nothing short of piracy
That's not to say it doesn't please me sometimes
Now this may come as no surprise
But I'm content to compromise
Until the day you realise
That I have been manipulating you

Night after night I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate

Night after night I try to prove
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate

Yes I'm tied up inside up inside your loving
But it's voodoo to me
Every night how I try how I try to resist you
But it's no good to me

Night after night I try to prove
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate

Drowning Man

NA NANA NA NANA NANA NA NA

He's sinking faster than a drowning man
He'll grab a hold of anyone he can
Gun in his pocket and a heart of ham
Uncle Sam

He's dying faster than a rabid dog
Infect us all now he's losing blood
Nose for trouble and a soul of rock
Smokey's man

Don't drag me down
Don't wanna drown
You're going down

NA NANA NA NANA NANA NA NA

There's not much flesh
Just skull & bone
Cheeks sunk deep
Eye's popping wide
Don't put out a hand to help him
The drowning man wil bite it right off
Right Off RIGHT OFF RIGHT OFF

Don't drag me down
Don't wanna drown
You're going down (going down)

NA NANA NA NANA NANA NA NA

He's selling faster than a magazine
Infect us all with his TV screen

Don't drag me down
Don't wanna drown
You're going down

NA NANA NA NANA NANA NA NA

Come Undone

Mine, immaculate dream made breath and skin
I've been waiting for you
Signed with a home tattoo
Happy birthday to you was created for you

Can't ever keep from falling apart at the seams
Can I believe you're taking my heart to pieces?

Ah, it'll take a little time
Might take a little crime to come undone
Now we'll try to stay blind to the hope and fear outside
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind and blow me in to cry

Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone

Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone

Words, playing me deja vu
Like a radio tune, I swear I've heard before
Chill, is it something real?
Or the magic I'm feeding off your fingers

Can't ever keep from falling apart at the seams
Can I believe you're taking my heart to pieces?

Lost, in a snow filled sky
We'll make it alright to come undone
Now we'll try to stay blind to the hope and fear outside
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind and blow me in to cry

Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone

Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone (can't ever keep from falling apart)

Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone (can't ever keep from falling apart)

Who do you need?
Who do you love? (Can't ever keep from falling apart)
Who do you love?
When you come undone

Breath After Breath

Breath after breath
Ama! love
Breath after breath
Danca! dance

Every day I wake up in this room and I don't know
Where I come from, where I'm going to
Then I hear the voice

Senhora musa da paz
Me abraca, me carrega no teu andor
Dormir no colo dar dor
Amiga, arrasa!
A tua mao desenhou o sonho na areia
Agora, entrega de vez meu rumo, e vida

Lady, muse of peace
From your pedestal come down and hold me, caress me
Sleep in the arms of pain
Friend, you devistate me, you bewilder me
Your hand drew the dream in the sand
Now give me my destiny once and for all, and life

From where I stand the truth isn't black & white
Alone we live & die we love & fight
Breath after breath we carry this mortal coil
Safe for tomorrow

Do I dare oh do I dare
Follow throught the footsteps my whole body hears
Beating on my heart like a feather
Beating of a moment til I disappear

Diga uma palavra alegre
Manda um recado que seja agora
Faz o mundo ficar novo e dancar no colodo tal de amor

Say something happy
Send a message that is new
Make a new world and dance in the arms of love

From where I stand the truth isn't black & white
Alone we live & die we love & fight
Breath after breath we carry this mortal coil
Circles of sand are washed out into the sea
Just as we slip on through to eternity
Breath after breath we carry this mortal coil
Safe for tomorrow

Diga uma palavra, cara
Bem alegre
Corre, manda logo um recado
Me abraca, Faz um clima doce
Me arrepia, Chega de sufocol!
Me poe louco! Me faz diamente teu amante
Danca do somo do rento, Me ensina
Basta de sufoco, Nao faz jogo

Say a something, dear
Very happy
Run, send me a message
Embrace me, make the weather pleasant
You give me chills, no more struggle!
You drive me crazy! Make me diamonds of your love
Dance to the sound of the wind, teach me
Stop the struggle, don't play games with me

A flame of Love is burning always
The song is of the planets oh whooooooooo
The dance is to the rhythm of the rain
Where everyone is coming from is coming to
And birth is just a breath after breath

UMF

(Going to the top)
(Oh, oh oh)
(Oh, oh oh)
(Oh, oh ah)
Here we stand in the shadow of the maste rplan
Makin touble wherever we can, (stir it up, stir it up, stir it up)
Cant you see this boy is going cheap - knockdown to a basement deal
But I really won't stop til I get to the top
Take it from me, Im waiting here on my knees
And I love the way you tease me ooh such a wonderful person
Dont play rough - its easy when you know your stuff
Say please and sure enough, so kind,
I'm makin' love to the ultimate mind
Come on, take a look, put it to me, baby,
You could feel a love come tumbling down.
I just want to wrap myself in you baby,
We could tell the world were fooling around.

Ultimately, I'd say she's toying with me
Its a case of wait and see,
But right now I'm gonna keep my pants on
A to Z, shes doin it to my head
We dont need to go to bed, you'll find,
To make love to the ultimate mind.
(Oh-oh, oh oh oh) (repeat)
Put it to me, baby (you could feel a love, love..)
Wanna wrap myself in you, baby (well tell the world, world..)
Talk me round, lets do it right here and now
I don't want you cooling down,
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
We could fit, realitys two-way split, personality
Lifes a bitch, but I'm fine,
Making love to the ultimate mind
Heavens bent, were completely innocent
We all got to pay the rent, and in time we learn to compromise
Talkin' tall, but I feel invisible
Can you see me after all, that I said, theres only one thing for it...

Take a look, put it to me, baby
You could feel a love come tumbling down
I just want to wrap myself in you baby
We can tell the world were fooling around
Come on, take a look, put it to me, baby (Oh-ah, oh oh oh)
You could be a love come tumbling down (Oh-ah, oh oh oh)
I just want to wrap myself in you baby (Oh-ah, oh oh oh)
We could tell the world were fooling around (Oh-ah, oh oh oh)
Come on, take a look, put it to me, baby (Oh-ah, oh oh oh)
You could feel a love come tumbling down (Oh-ah, oh oh oh)
I just want to wrap myself in you baby (Oh-ah, oh oh oh)
We could tell the world were fooling around (Oh-ah, oh oh oh)
Come on, take a look (put it to me baby)
(Oh-ah, oh oh oh)
(Oh-ah, oh oh oh)
(Oh-ah, oh oh oh)
I'm making love to the ultimate mind, mind...
Ultimate mind, mind...
Ultimate mind, mind, mind, mind ...
Ooooohhh ooooaahh
Ahhhaahh oohhoooo
Ohhhhh

Femme Fatale

Here she comes, you better watch your step
She's going to break your heart in two it's true
It's not hard to realise
Just look into her false coloured eyes
She'll build you up just to put you down
What a clown 'coz everybody knows...

She's a femme fatale
The things she does to please
She's just a little tease
See the way she walks, hear the way she talks

You're written in her book number 37 take a look
She's going to smile to make you frown
What a clown
Little boy she's from the street
Before you start you're already beat
She's going to play you for a fool, yes it's true
'coz everybody knows...

She's a femme fatale
The things she does to please
She's just a little tease
See the way she walks, hear the way she talks

She will try to put you down
The hardest girl around 'cos everybody knows...

She's a femme fatale
The things she does to please
She's just a little tease

She's a femme fatale...

None Of The Above

I am I myself alone
Realise I never need to use No-one
When it comes down to my soul
Freedom puts my faith in none of the above

There was a time I was so afraid
Of everything people around me said
That I wanted to hide my face in the shadows

There was a time on a bed of nails
I was dreaming a plan up that could not fail
And no power under the sun could pull it together

Can't take this attitude
Got to show now I got to move on
God knows where I'm going to
Its a lonely burning question

I am I myself alone
Realise I never need to use No-one
Money, power, Holy roads
Freedom puts my faith in none of the above

If there's a time that we ever see
The nature of life in reality
Then I want to be there
To kick at the answer

I can't take this attitude
Got to show now I got to move on
God knows where I'm going to
It's a lonely burning question

I am I myself alone
Realise I never need to use No-one
Money, power, Holy roads
Freedom puts my faith in none of the above
I am I myself alone
Realise I never need to use No-one
When it comes down to my soul
Freedom puts my faith in none of the above

(Repeat)

None of the above
I stand by none of the above

Shelter

I watch you from my window
Working this vicious road
You shudder when the wind blows
Girl you're looking beat and cold
Don't know your situation
But you look so alone to me
In my imagination this how the message reads

Just come softly to me
In the shelter of my heart
Trust my intuition you're the one I've got to know
I give without condition
Wouldn't try to save you're soul
Money or reputation doesn't mean a thing to me
Special communication it's the only thing we need

Reaching out...Calling out
Just come softly to me
Calling out...Hear me now
In the shelter of my heart

Reaching out...Calling out...
Hear me now...Do you read me?
In the shelter of my heart

Here there is no pain to feel
Here is safe for lips unsealed
Just come softly to me

Reaching out reaching out
For your love babe
Calling out calling out
For your love babe

Just come softly to me
In the shelter of my heart

To Whom It May Concern

Dear Mr. Bones, we've had enough
You can try to pull us down
With your pinstripe weasal stuff
But word travels in this town

I wouldn't write home about you
We're better off without you
Without you, Mr. Bones

Some people feed on other people's troubles
Some people beat on other people's meat
Some people want to bleed us dry
Some people... Gonna drown on your feet

You said "Boys, I'll get you more
But you got to pay me by the hour"
Anyway you're just another bore
Who believes he's superpower

Chorus
When you talk about loyalty
I hope you realise, since you ate my royalties
Mr. Bones, this is goodbye
And as such hereinafter shall be referred
Notwithstanding or foregoing statements unpreferred
Don't claim you understand
When you've not heard a single word, a dicky bird

Some people feed on other people's troubles
Some people beat on other people's meat
Some people want to bleed us dry
And some people... Gonna drown on you feet

Sin Of The City

Coat check girl up in Happyland
Has a violent row with a Cuban man
Julio leaves in a drunken rage
Comes back with the gasoline

The club had no fire exit
The club only had one door
Only five people came out alive
The Sin is that 89 died

89 dead 89 dead 89 dead 89 dead

The sin is that a year and a half before
The fire chief's out and he's rasing cain
Brands Happlyland hazard close down but no
No-one ever paid him no mind
No-one ever paid him no mind...

City living heavy trouble
City living rough
We are given angry heart
But angers not enough

Daily News reviews of the landlords life
Found six thousand code vilations light
The city has more a hundred thousand wars
All for one of Forbes' Four Hundred whores

Just one fire cracker on a big bonfire
Of a self serving penny pinching wiseguy style
Never allowing for the human condition
Never allowing for the human condition
The Sin is that these guys survive

City living heavy trouble
City living rough
We are given angry heart
But anger's not enough

You're using your people up
Stop killing your people now
Stop wasting your people now

Sin of the city...
