Sun City Night Life
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
To the city beat on a treacherous curve
Up upon the high wire you're observed –
Yeag, you live as you live, you'll get what you deserve:
High life, dig those highlights
You're in the lite lights
You'll be like a moth consumed by a flame
(Consumed by a flame)
[Verse 2]
It's a rich man's world, kick those beggars and fools;
Conspicuous consumption the only rule
But the law of retribution will be terribly cruel
[Chorus]
Oh, but you mustn't stop to think about your place upon the planet;
If you did, you might steal yourself away
And it doesn't really matter if the show goes up tomorrow
After all, this petty place is day to day
[Post-Chorus]
It's the highlight
It's the Sun City nightlife
It's the dancing at midnight
It's the dancing all moral existence away
[Instrumental]
[Pre-Chorus]
Nightlife, highlights, highlife, twilight...
[Chorus]
Oh, you mustn't ever think about your place upon the planet
Don't look further than the bottom of a drink
Don't ever think about what's going to come tomorrow
Don't stop dancing or the boat will sink...
All in all it's gone before you blink
[Post-Chorus]
Highlights of the high life
Sun City nightlife
You'll be like a moth consumed by flame...
Here comes the hilight of the high life
Chimes at midnight...
You're still dancing all moral existence away
(You'll be like a moth consumed by flame...)
[Bridge]
(Dancing, dancing)
(Dancing, dancing)
(Dancing, dancing)
(Dancing, dancing)
(Dancing, consumed by flame)
(Dancing, dancing)
(Dancing, consumed by flame)
[Outro]
A motor-bike in Afrika (Dancing, dancing)
He's riding the white line (Dancing, consumed by flame)
Oblivious of snakes stretched out across the way like trip-wire... (Dancing, dancing, dancing, consumed by flame)
He's dancing
(Biko, Biko Biko, Biko)
(Biko, Biko Biko, Biko)
