  • Here comes the action
    Here it comes at last
    Lord give me a reaction
    Lord give me a chance

    You should follow me down

    In satellite towns
    There's no color and no sound
    I'll be ten feet underground
    Gotta get out of this satellite town

    Here comes some action
    First time in my life
    Gotta get out to get compensation
    Gotta get out to get this to last

    Whether you live alone
    Or you're trying to find your way in this world
    You better make sure that you don't
    Crack you head on that pavement man!
    My God! The shock!
    It's been preying on me and mine
    This is a dangerous place man
    This is a dangerous place, there's nothing here

    You should follow your way down

    In satellite towns
    There's no color and no sound
    I'll be down fee underground
    In a black and white town

    You should follow me down
    There's no color and no sound
    In a black and white town
    I'll be ten feet underground
    In a black and white town Writer/s: ANDY WILLIAMS, JEZ WILLIAMS, JIMI GOODWIN
