Ivory Tower

Here is the news

from my little hideaway

my sweet ivory tower

i've sent you songs about so many things

mighty moondogs skipping waves

dolphins playing their lives away

golden circus girls and pharaohs

fallen angels, streetside romeos

patricia's park and anyway

eternal youth and neverending summerdays

lonely girls, music halls, the mysteries of love

in the event

that i don't return

please take this message to understand

in the event...

i am a stranger

in a strange land

welcome stranger, to the land of the free

welcome, carol, to fantasy

oh my god, i feel so alone

a million lightyears far from home

it seems to be a tragedy

how can i live in germany

another house is burning down

it's time to face the cruel reality

this is a game no more

desasters in the twentieth century

in the event that i don't return

please, take this message to understand

in the event
