Tears For Fears - Standing On The Corner Of The Third World Lyrics
Man, I never slept so hard
I never dreamt so well
Dreaming, I was safe in life
Like mussels in a shells
Rolling and controlling all the basements and the backroads of our lives
Fill thier heads with sand
Holy white we'll paint the town
The colour of our flag
Hey there little lady has your baby got the look of some old man ?
Standing on the corner of the third world
Hungry men will close their minds
Ideas are not their food
Notions fall on stony ground
Where passions are subdued
Colour all the madness for the madness is the thorn that's in our side
When we gonna learn ?
Who we gonna turn to ?
The promises they make
The call for attention
Compassion is the fashion
Free to earn, our pockets burn
We buy for love
Die for love
Hold me I'm crying
Hold me I'm dying

Tears For Fears Standing On The Corner Of The Third World Comments
This album is a very good one...
Reminds me of Rain Tree Crow, and believe me, that is a good place to be
Oh god, I wish music like this was still made
Dommage , qu'ils se sont séparés pendant dix ans, après cette album, leur mésententes, nous ont certainement fait perdre pas mal de chef d'oeuvre durant cette période.
The last minute and a half or so of this song epitomizes what is so amazing, to me, about this band. Dark, "emo" and introspective yet universally shared lyrics laid on top of beautiful yet powerful and dark layers of perfectly matched instrumental madness.
I love you Tears For Fears!!!
the lick
The more I listen to this song the more amazed I get. It really is a masterpiece.
The whole album is a masterpiece.
Masterpiece
