Thomas Dolby - Eastern Bloc (Sequel To Europa And The Pirate Twins, 1981) Lyrics
Thomas Dolby - Eastern Bloc---------------------------Here in England it's so greenMartian men can move unseenApparatus undergroundMonitor the crunching soundJoey's gone and Georgie's gonePut their best torn trousers onFound a crowbar and a drillHeaded for the Berlin WallAnd last night I swear I saw her faceAs they stormed the gates of satellite TV ("Europa")Too bad I don't get News At Ten'Cause the CNN would tell a different storyChorus:Eastern Bloc, Eastern BlocYou're never gonna break that dead (?How can I shake that gridlock?Shell-shock!Tuning out, tuning in, Europa, EuropaShine across these waves and rescue meLoud and clear, through thick and thin, Europa, EuropaCome in, come in, come in, come in, do you read?Are you receiving me?So I was fourteen she was twelveFather travelled, hers as wellDown the beaches hand in handTwelfth of never on the sandAnd we said we'd be the pirate twins againIn the freezing rain of the Eastern BlocAnd I used to think each time we kissed it was for realBut tonight I feel that the wind has changed(Repeat Chorus Twice
