There'll never be another quite like you

I'm so involved with everything you do

Don't say nothing good will ever come of this

Don't say the damage is worse than it is



Back in metropolis, circuses and elephants

Where the oranges grew

Back in metropolis nothing can ever topple us

When i'm standing with you



You stare down at some crowd from your trapeze

And when you fell they fell down on their knees

And when you broke they scrambled for a piece

And when you spoke i felt their anger freeze



Back in metropolis, circuses and elephants

Where the oranges grew

Back in metropolis nothing can ever topple us

When i'm standing with you

Back in metropolis talk about a holocaust

And then visit the zoo

Back in metropolis the weather is ridiculous

What's it all leading to

And it's only a day away

We could leave tonight

You could sleep along the way

Dream in black and white
