Up in the tower, in the room of mirrors
They got the looks and the dirty jeans
Out on the harbour with the smug and restless
This city's dug like a shallow grave
The city is humming, so come on
Down on the corner of a street to nowhere
There's a man in a UFO
He just blew in and he's kind of restless
He'll take you on to sell your soul
Over
It's over
