Sleepwalking lyrics
The stranger comes to town
He is greeted like a prince
Society declares him wise and funny
Celebrities are only decorations in this place
What really matters here is old money
His temporary lover has amber coloured skin
In a lush apartment in the city center
Bankers like his company
They always let him in
There is no door to tell him do not enter
They re following a dream
Following a dream
Sleepwalking
A boy has become a member of a most desired club
He has a fine address in these sixties
If hipness could be diagrammed he would be the hub
Girls follow him round like sexy pixies
There s talk among the money men in Miami beach
The train is leaving
You don t want to miss it
Whatever it is he s offering it s there within your reach
So here is the ring
Why don t you kiss it
They re following a dream
Following a dream
Sleepwalking
But there s a country house a world away from here
Where accusations fill the room today
Something has gone missing and it s absolutely clear
A servent left quite suddenly
He didn t ask for money
He just packed up and left quietly away
Back inside the nouveau world
The rich are sitting down
They realize it s time for some assessments
Their charasmatic friend is somehow no where to be found
Along with beggered will and their investments
Someone said they saw him on a plane to Salvador or Moscow
Now the weather s warming
The lure of easy money keeps him constantly employed
It s a social service he s performing
Following a dream
Following a dream
Sleepwalking
They re following a dream
Willingly it seems
Sleepwalking
