Simple Minds - Capital City Lyrics






Nerve and nerve
This coastline swerves
To a city that they live on
I walk on by
Animals cry
To a city that they live on
To a city that they walk on
To a city that they live on
Pulse Feel Pulse

This train is late
I hesitate
To a city that they live on
Dance the dance of violence
To a city that they live on
To a city that they crawl on
To a city that they live on

Pulse Feel Pulse

City that they live on
Feel
To a city that they crawl on
To a city live on
Feel
City that they crawl on

  1. m.... ....

    opening track at the Edinburgh playhouse theatre 1981....great night.

  2. w.... m....

    the best album of the simple minds

    w.... m....

    without a doubt...

  3. d.... B....

    One of many, many early eighties Simple Minds masterclasses.

  4. f.... ....

    just discovered this today, 22 May 2018, 30 years after Alive and Kicking or Waterfront, simply nevermind.

  5. R.... H....

    This song is so unique...Reminds me of Jim Morrison and is heavy in its own way. Rock and roll at its nest!

  6. G.... T....

    timeless...

  7. R.... H....

    This Empires and Dance album was pretty unique. Can't think of anything that sounds similar.

    R.... H....

    Oh, they were some more. Real to Real Cacaphony, Sons and Fascination, Wire "154" and their more weirder stuff, and some early The Fall albums with this strong base.

  8. R.... H....

    I have always thought of SM as kind of an evolution of The Doors.

  9. T.... L....

    what dickhead dislike this !

    T.... L....

    somebody who liked Autobahn first maybe?

  10. I.... ....

    Oh, that groove - so addictive and sedative.

  11. p.... ....

    This song is fantastic and it shows how great SM was

  12. M.... C....

    This song is a masterpiece, I feel in my 15yo listening to this.

  13. M.... ....

    80s were so great- you had to be there to fully understand.

    M.... ....

    I agree with you. I was there and it was great.

    M.... ....

    @Mauro Clementi cool !
