Lyrics

Young man made it to the city
Searching through the wet streets
Looking for a rock and roll band
Caught the rip-off train to freedom
A line of agents holding out their hands
Work your asses off forever
Midnight highway really brings you down
But you're there and you're working
So don't complain, so many missed that train
Find a sound, lay it down
They say it's underground
Starts to sell, doing well
But you can never tell
Now the young man's star shines brightly
Breaking hearts, his records in the charts
Finds it hard to freak twice nightly
Falls in love, the hardest fall of all
Find a sound, lay it down (Yeah, yeah)
They say it's underground
Starts to sell, doing well
But you can never tell
Find a sound, lay it down
They say it's underground
Starts to sell, doing well
But you can never tell
He was just a lonely boy
A very well-known clown
He was just a lonely boy and down
Find a sound, lay it down (He was just a lonely boy)
They say it's underground (A very well-known clown)
Starts to sell, doing well (He was just a lonely boy and down)
But you can never tell
Find a sound, lay it down (He was just a lonely boy)
They say it's underground (A very well-known clown)
Starts to sell, doing well (He was just a lonely boy and down)
But you can never tell
Find a sound, lay it down (He was just a lonely boy)
They say it's underground
