• Price To Be Paid

Da dum da dum da da da dum, Da dum da dum da da da dum
Da dum da dum da da da dum, Da dum
Slipped back home all alone
Trying to keep myself to my family and me
Spotted at the beach taken out to lunch flat whites and carrot cake,
At The Lime Tree, Café by the bay
The marina bouncers are lame only letting the vacuous and beautifully tame
Girls into a den where finely dressed men entertain with their salaries and cosmetic grins
In a city where a buck can be a matter of luck
Your skin colour your lifestyle your wasta
Determine your rise as much as your mind
Like skyscrapers they’re slowly cracking
On the backs of the men who been building them
Imported by self-styled pharaohs
Where the washing of bills and the ringing of tills drown out any notions that question
Ethics in a land that places faith in its candid glamour and hype on billboards
In place of social foundations build monorail stations to ease congestion while enlarging the airport
Followed by road-side stares everywhere everyday it’s all perspective people say
Buy a model home in the mall and deck it out with kitsch décor from Arabian heritage stalls

Cause there’s a price to be paid, Cause there’s a price to be paid
Cause there’s a price to be paid, Cause there’s a price to be paid

Slipped back home all alone
Trying to keep myself to my family and friends
Spotted at the beach taken out to lunch flat whites and carrot cake,
At The Lime Tree, Café by the bay
The marina bouncers are lame and we’re all so artificially tame
And around and around and around and again, And we dance and we drink and we spin and we sing

Da dum da dum da da da dum, Da dum da dum da da da dum
Da dum da dum da da da dum, Da da dum da da da dum
Da dum da dum da da da dum, Da dum da dum da da da dum
Da dum da dum da da da dum, Da dum da dum da da da dum
Da dum da dum da da da dum, Da dum da dum da da da dum
Da dum da dum da da da dum, Da da dum da dum
