Thomas Dolby - Dissidents Lyrics
One more young writer slid away in the nightover the border he will drown in lighthold it -- wait a minuteI can't read my writing, my own writing!like tiny insects in the palm of historya domino effect in a cloud of mysterymy writing is an iron fistin a glove full of vaselinebut dip the fuse in the keroseneI too become a dissidentCourting disaster we ran in the nightwings of an angel torn in flightcheck it -- verify itit's all here in writing, down in writing!at the hands of the pressand in the eyes of the governmentI fell from graceI too became a dissidentlike tiny insects in the palm of historya domino effect and an early end to this storymy writing is an iron fistin a glove full of vaselinebut dip the fuse in the keroseneI too become a dissident
