Lyrics
Underworld
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you decide to reside in the underworld
You should beware what your wish is
You could be wrong to belong to another place
They make you swim with the fish.
We never fall and get up again
Living in a sea of sorrow.
Somebody show you to the light
Swim in a limousine for free
Spend every night in the arms of the enemy
It's your life, on the line
When you live in the underworld
There's no time, there's no sleep
When you're deep in the underworld
You can't run, you can't hide
When you glide through the underworld
Underworld, ah.
And any time after midnight you phone around
You're on the line for the stranger
It's not the love make you safer or satisfied
It's just the demonic danger
Down below the shark is number one
If you want to see tomorrow
So many fingers on the gun
Following you each place you go
I'll be the face you never know
It's your life, on the line
When you live in the underworld
There's no time, there's no sleep
When you're deep in the underworld
You can't run, you can't hide
When you glide through the underworld
Underworld, ah.
It's your life, on the line
When you live in the underworld
There's no time, there's no sleep
When you're deep in the underworld
You can't run, you can't hide
When you glide through the underworld
Underworld, ah.
It's your life, on the line
When you live in the underworld
There's no time, there's no sleep
When you're deep in the underworld
You can't run, you can't hide
When you glide through the underworld
Underworld, ah.
