Elton John - Restless Lyrics
Music by elton johnLyrics by bernie taupinAvailable on the album breaking heartsIts a hot summer night in the blackboard jungleCrime sits heavy on the city shoulderCant get no work, I cant get a jobI just sit and play my radio in the parking lotWell theyre breaking down doors in foreign countriesEverybody thinks somebodys hiding somethingTheres talk on the street and the nation is worriedBut you cant talk back when youre dead, when youre dead andBuriedAnd everybodys restlessEverybodys scaredEverybodys looking for something that just aint thereEverybodys restlessEverybodys scared, they think were all in dangerEveryones taking cover from someone elses angerThe walls have ears, big brothers watchingThey tell us that were poisoned from everything that wereTouchingWell we could be children from the way were actingWe feed ourselves lies and then we scream for actionWe just breed and we lose our nerveAnd theres bombs going off in every corner of the world
