Metropolis - Peter Cincotti

Higher than a dove

Metropolis

Nothing’s above

Metropolis

Can’t stop thinking of

Metropolis

Don’t you love

Metropolis?

Modern cavemen fall out of bed

Rain drops from the street

Dirty pavement above my head

Clouds below my feet

Hungry hearts

Under fet

Hanging on

By a thread

Metropolis

City in the sky

Metropolis

Birds walk and people fly

Metropolis

High is low and low is high

Metropolis

Hello means goodbye

Metropolis

It’s a floating boat

Metropolis

Landscrapers touch the ground

Metropolis

Go take a look around

Metropolis

There’s a reason why it’s upside down

Solar road signs and spiral lights

Subways to the moon

Children run after iron kites

Holding glass balloons

It is home

To you and me

Don’t pretend

That you can’t see

Metropolis

City in the sky

Metropolis

Birds walk and people fly

High is low and low is high

Metropolis

The truth is a lie

Metropolis

It’s a floating town

Metropolis

Landscrapers touch the ground

Go take a look around

Metropolis

There’s the reason why it’s upside down

We believe

What is said

And we go

Where we’re lead

‘cause the future’s been she

Higher than a dove

Metropolis

Nothing’s above

Metropolis

Can’t stop thinking of

Metropolis

Don’t you love

Metropolis?

City in the sky

Birds walk and people fly

High is low and low is high

Confused?

So am I
