Front Line

[Verse 1]
Sometimes I'd really like to fall in love
But I can only give you a part of me
Sometimes I feel like I'm falling apart
Still I know I just can't stop

Sometimes I want to throw it all away
All except this thing that's a part of me
Sometimes I want to break everything in sight
Still I know that it's no use

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to know, do you all need this music?
I've got to know, do you find it amusing?

[Verse 2]
Get up every morning in the battery
For coffee and toast with the TV on
When the whole world turns black at night
I see one little window (it's me)

Somebody tell me where I ought to go
Or just why I'm failing to make up my mind
Sometimes I feel that the answer lies
In the songs the kids sing

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to know, do you all need this music?
I've got to know, do you find it amusing?

[Chorus]
Gonna be a soldier
Fighting a mind war
It's called music
And I'm a soldier

[Verse 1, Peter Barakan]
Sometimes I'd really like to fall in love
But I can only give you a part of me
Sometimes I feel like I'm falling apart
Still I know I just can't stop

[Verse 2, Ryuichi Sakamoto]
Get up every morning in the battery
For coffee and toast with the TV on
Sometimes I feel that the answer lies
In the songs the kids sing

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to know, do you all need this music?
I've got to know, do you find it amusing?

[Chorus]
Gonna be a soldier
Fighting a mind war
It's called music
And I'm a soldier

Gonna be a soldier
Fighting a mind war
It's called music
And I'm a soldier

Gonna be a soldier
Fighting a mind war
It's called music
And I'm a soldier

Gonna be a soldier
Fighting a mind war
It's called music
And I'm a soldier

Gonna be a soldier
Fighting a mind war
It's called music
And I'm a soldier

Gonna be a soldier
Fighting a mind war
It's called music
And I'm a soldier

Gonna be a soldier
Fighting a mind war
It's called music--
