Broken records on the ground

Paris traffic spinning round and round

So I stood there with James Brown

A king in a cape of Saturn

He's the man with the golden voice

And for him there can be no real choise

And the years of all the screaming fans

Within the years of gladness

For we are hungry for what is real

There will always be a need for us to feel

There will always be something beyond this

Cold steel workaday world

All computer systems go now

And the beat is moving slower now

But you stood there like a boxing pro

And took off for the stars

Cause there is one thing you should know now

That your spirit can't be broken

And the memory is so sweet

To see you alive and kicking

For we are hungry for what is real

There will always be a need for us to feel

There will always be something beyond this

Cold steel workaday world

For we are hungry for what is real

There will always be a need for us to feel

There will always be something beyond this

Cold steel workaday world

This Cold Steel World
