  • Sophisticated minds
    You are your country
    Situated in a line
    In my city
    In a forgotten dream
    I can't wake up
    Thank you mama
    Her Majesty
    Hey, hey, hey
    The dream becoming reality
    All the day

    So

    Reach out
    To somebody's God
    'Cause what you take
    Is what you give
    Reach out
    To get what you want
    'Cause what it takes
    Is all there is

    My mind it flies
    And it alights
    On the panes
    Every night I'm getting high
    In the doorway
    The situation's sublime
    Lets face it
    Taking from the deaf and the blind
    Hey, hey, hey
    At home in a hole in the ground
    All the day

    So

    Reach out
    To somebody's god
    'Cause what you take
    Is what you give
    Speak out
    Get what you want
    'Cause what it takes
    Is all there is

    I'm strung and wound
    Beyond all the harmony
    And when I die I'm gonna fly
    Economy
    My dream's a reality always
    Thank our mama Her Majesty
    Hey, hey, hey
    Sleep under falling leaves
    All the day

    So

    Reach out
    To someone you love
    'Cause what you take
    Is what you give
    Reach out
    To somebody you love
    'Cause all you've got
    Is all there is
    Speak out
    To someone you love
    'Cause what you take
    Is all there is Writer/s: JAMES DOVIAK, JOHNNY MARR
