Song lyrics

When the music's over,
When the music's over here
When the music over turn out the lights,
turn out the lights,
turn out the lights
Yeah, yeah

For the music is your special friend
Dance on fire as it intends
music is your only friend until the end,
until the end, until the end

Cancel my subscription to the resurrection,
Send my credentials to the house of detention,
I got some friends inside

The face in the mirror won't stop
The girl in the window won't drop
A feast of friends alive she cried,
Waiting for me outside

Before I sink into the big sleep
I want to hear
I want to hear the scream of the butterfly

Come back, baby, back into my arms

We're getting tired of waiting around
Waiting around
with our heads
to the ground
I hear a very gentle sound
What have they done to the earth?
What have they done to our fair sister?
Ravaged and plundered
and ripped her and bit her
Stuck her with knives
in the side of the dawn
and tied her with fences
and dragged her down

I hear a very gentle sound
With your ear down to the ground -
We want the world and we want it
Now!
Persian night!
See the light!
Save us!
Jesus!
Save us!

When the music's over,
When the music's over here
When the music over turn out the lights,
turn out the lights,
turn out the lights
Yeah, yeah

For the music is your special friend
Dance on fire as it intends
music is your only friend until the end,
until the end, until the end
