Humdrum


Just a touch of industry, Monday morning
Put on your collar and head straight out
Everyone's waiting, don't be late...
Uptown midday
Sound of the city on slow decay
See the faces behind private eyes
As you pencil in their lives
In the humdrum,
Can you hear the doldrum,
Stepping outside the firing line
There's a foreman standing on a bridge of iron
And the men walk across it to go back to work
In their monday morning shirts
And they don't run
And when the work's done
At nights, the streets are alive with
Catwalk, West Side Story, flashback parade
In this quick fire, cry tough world
Men with ambition
Will,
Be Loved
Moving up to another rung
Feel the heart of the city beating tight as a drumPlaying "Move on up" and they never stop
A whole wold living out "Beat the Clock"
And it's said and done "Look after number one"
Ultimatum, deadline
Wound up so tight
'Til you can't unwind
Worlds within worlds, some built out of nothing
By those who left this world behind
Driven on by fear or ambition
Now,
Waiting in line,
Things will work out fine
They just take a little time.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Dream Academy was a British musical group formed in London in 1983 and disbanded in 1991. The group, composed of Nick Chappel (vocals), Gilbert Gabriel (keyboards) and Andy Gangadeen (drums), achieved international success with the single "Life in a Northern Town", released in 1985. The song, a nostalgic anthem to life in Northern England, became a classic of the era and helped define the synth-pop aesthetic of the 1980s. The Dream Academy released two studio albums: "The Dream Academy" (1985) and "Blindfold" (1987). Both albums achieved moderate commercial success, but failed to reach the heights of their first single. After the release of "Blindfold", the group disbanded. Although they had a relatively short career, The Dream Academy left an indelible mark on the history of 1980s pop music.
