Break It Down Again Lyrics

TO ALL THE CS.UWP.EDU FOLK: this version is only slightly different from the
one you already have, but I typed it up for myself and kermited it into
my directory before I checked and found out you already had this song. But
I'm sending it anyway b/c I've taken so many lyric sheets I figure I should
probably contribute more.

"Break It Down Again" (Orzabal/Griffiths)
by Tears for Fears
from the 1993 Mercury album Elemental

Note: all lyrics here are taken from those printed on the inside of 
the CD single, except the any words in brackets [] which are based 
on what I think he's really saying.

Break it down again

So those are my dreams
And these are my eyes
Stand tall like a man
Head strong like a horse

When it's all mixed up
Better break it down
In the world of secrets
In the world of sound

It's in the way you're always hiding from the light
See for yourself you have been sitting on a time bomb
No revolution maybe someone somewhere else
Could show you something new about you and your inner song
And all the love and all the love in the world
Won't stop the rain from falling
Waste seeping underground
I want to break it down

Break it down again

So those are my schemes
And these are my plans
Hot tips for the boys
Fresh news from the force

When it's all mixed up
Better break it down
In the world of silence
In the world of sound

"No sleep for dreaming" say the architects of life
Big bouncing babies, bread and butter can I have a slice
They make no mention of the beauty of decay
Blue, yellow, pink umbrella save it for [a] rainy day
And all the love and all the love in the world
Won't stop the rain from falling
Waste seeping underground
I want to break it down

Horsin' around
Pray to the power
Play to the crowd with your big hit sound
And they won't simmer won't simmer, won't simmer down
Play to the crowd
Play to the crowd               (I think he actually says 'Play')
Play yeah yeah

It's in the way you're always hiding from the light
Fast off to heaven just like Moses on a motorbike
No revolution maybe someone somewhere else
Could show you something new to help
With the ups and downs
I want to break it down
Break it down again

Break it down again
No more sleepy dreaming
No more building up
It is time to dissolve
Break it down again
No more sleepy dreaming
