The Lyrics - Beautiful People

When you look out at night
You are surrounded by PEOPLE?
Cracked in the heat again
Dead on their feet again PEOPLE
Rings all around their eyes
Flashing their whitest lies
Taking the medicine
Till they're all anodyne
PEOPLE, PEOPLE

What does it say to you
When you can’t face all those PEOPLE
You could run out of friends
Faster than making them
Out on your own again
Now you don't know how to
FEEL, FEEL

When you’re looking for reason
And finding confusion
You’re caught in the cross fire
Learning to thrill
Well there’s got to be some way out of the blue
Now you’re caught in the maelstrom
And spilling your life-blood
Feeling your backbone turning to glue
All I wanna be’s so fine
People

When you look out at night
Are you surrounded by PEOPLE?
Cracked in the heat again
Dead on their feet again
Taking the medicine
Till they’re all anodyne
PEOPLE, PEOPLE

When you’re looking for reason
And finding confusion
You’re caught in the cross fire
Learning to thrill
Well there’s got to be some way out of the blue
Now you’re caught in the maelstrom
And spilling your life-blood
Feeling your backbone turning to glue
All I wanna be’s so fine
