lyrics
Doesn’t matter if the sky is blue.
The rain keeps falling down.
I don’t know what I came here for.
I just wanna be around.
I don’t care if the whole damn place
Is falling to the ground.
I don’t care about a twist of fate.
My love lies underground.
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya … Listen to the rhythm.
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya … Downtown.
Kicks like a boot on stone.
But we all come back for more.
No church is gonna turn our heads.
That’s not what we came here for.
You give up everything
That you work so hard for.
Money, power, all that counts.
Sex force will win the war.
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya … Listen to the rhythm.
Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya … Downtown.

3 songs from the World-Electronica music album "Tibet" by Waterbone. These songs and others of the genre inspire me by dissolving barriers and structures of the genres I'm used to writing within. Mark Reed
