Canary In A Coalmine

First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect
Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect
You live you life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line

You say you want to spend the winter in firenza
You’re so afraid to catch a dose of influenza
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line

Canary in a coalmine

Now if I tell you that you suffer from delusions
You pay your analyst to reach the same conclusions
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line

Canary in a coalmine

First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect
Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line

The Police – Born in the 50’s

Born In The 50’s

We were born
Born in the fifties

My mother cried
When president kennedy died
She said it was the communists
But I knew better

Would they drop the bomb on us
While we made love on the beach
We were the class they couldn’t teach
‘cos we knew better

We were born
Born in the fifties

They screamed
When the beatles sang
And they laughed when the king fell down the stars
O they should’ve known better

O we hated our aunt
Then we messed in our pants
Then we lost our faith and prayed to the tv
O we should’ve known better

We were born
Born in the fifties

We freeze like statues on the pages of history
Living was never like this when we took all those gce’s
O you opened the door for us
And then you turned to dust
You don’t understand us
So don’t reprimand us
We’re taking the future
We don’t need no teacher

We were born
Born in the fifties
