Calling cards of madness
Pull the brass men from their knees
To petrify more images to dangle just outside the reach
Of the stunted and the dreamless ones who have nothing left to keep
For frozen dawns or nights as cold as these have been
Don't ask for explanations
There's nothing left you'd understand
You're one of the wild, the beautiful and the damned
The wild, the beautiful and the damned
We read the latest venereal journals
Flicked through some catalogues of fear
You tore some more pages from your old lovers hearts
Then we engineered a wild reunion in a Berlin alleyway
While your New York fuehrer (?) tore our universe apart
(Chorus)
Break my legs politely
I'll spit my gold teeth out at you
Your sores are almost big enough to step right inside now
I'll send you truckloads of flowers from all the worlds that you stole from me
I'll spin a coin in the madhouse while I watch you drowning
(Chorus)
The wild, the beautiful and the damned
(Repeat and fade)
Ultravox sono un gruppo musicale britannico di new wave formatosi a Londra nel 1973. Originariamente chiamati Ultravox! (con il punto esclamativo), il nome richiamava quello del gruppo tedesco Neu!. Dopo i primi due album, hanno eliminato il punto esclamativo. Il loro sound si è evoluto dal progressive rock iniziale ad un synth-pop più elettronico e melodico, influenzando profondamente la scena new wave degli anni '80. Il gruppo ha raggiunto il successo internazionale con l'album *Vienna* (1980), che include i singoli "Vienna", "Dancing with Tears in My Eyes" e "The Voice”. Midge Ure, cantante e compositore, è diventato il volto del gruppo dopo aver sostituito John Foxx nel 1979. Altri membri importanti sono stati Billy Currie (tastiere) e Chris Cross (basso). Ultravox hanno pubblicato diversi album di successo negli anni '80, tra cui *Rage in Eden* (1981), *Quartet* (1982) e *Lament*. Dopo una pausa nel 1984, il gruppo si è riunito per alcuni tour e progetti sporadici. **Brani rappresentativi:** Vienna, Dancing with Tears in My Eyes, The Voice, Hymn, All Stood Still

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
