Lovers Of The World

(album: The Modern Bop - 1984)

Lovers of the world, gotta get together
Gotta find yourselves then find one another

Hey hey
Hey hey
Hey hey

So many years we've been locked away
Now we're on the move
God help the man who would stand and try to lay a hand on us

So many years we've been pushed aside
But now we're on our way
We're moving out to collect a world that is owed to us

Gonna make a new friend, gonna make me sweat
Gonna take off my shoes, gonna get all wet
Gonna rip up the page, gonna start again
Gonna try and forget, gonna jump right in

Lovers of the world, gotta get together
Gotta find yourselves then find one another
Walk into your life with a smile
Pick a time, pick a lover in your mind
And then do what I say

Wanna walk in the rain, I wanna lose my way
Wanna live in your eyes, wanna find the day
Wanna kilo of flesh, I wanna head on a tray
Wanna pump it up now, wanna get my say
Hey hey

Too many days have we punched the clock
Now we're taking off
We're making off while there's time for lovers left before the end

Too many weeks have we pushed the broom
Now we're breaking clean
We're breaking free from the tired old men who try to keep us down

Gonna make a new friend, gonna make me sweat
Gonna take off my shoes, gonna get all wet
Gonna rip up the page, gonna start again
Gonna try to forget, gonna jump right in

Lovers of the world, gotta get together
Gotta find yourselves then find one another
Walk into your life with a smile
Pick a time, pick a lover in your mind
And then do what I say
Lovers of the world, gotta get together
Gotta find yourselves then find one another
Lovers of the world
