Pet Shop Boys - It’s Alright (10" Version) lyrics

Dictation being forced in Afghanistan
Revolution in South Africa taking a stand
People in Eurasia on the brink of oppression

I hope it's gonna be alright
I hope the music plays forever

Forests falling at a desperate pace
The earth is dying and
Desert taking it's place
People under pressure on the
Brink of starvation

I hope it's gonna be alright
(Alright, alright, alright, alright)

Generations will come and go
But there's one thing for sure
Music is our life's foundation
And shall succeed all the nations to come
Yeah

(Alright, alright, alright, alright)
I hope it's gonna be alright
(Alright, alright, alright, alright)
And the music plays forever
(For it goes on and on and on and on and on)
And it's gonna be alright
(On and on and on and on and
On and on and on and on)
And the music plays forever

The year three thousand may
Still come to pass but the music shall last
I can hear it on a timeless wavelength
Never dissipating, but giving us strength

I hope it's gonna be alright
I hope the music plays forever
(For it goes on and on and on and on)
(On and on and on and on forever)

There's a boy standing by a river
There's a girl lying with her lover
There's a statesman standing at a crossroads
There's a soldier polishing his gun

I can hear it on a timeless wavelength
Never dissipating, but giving us strength

(It's alright) it's gonna be alright
(Alright, alright, alright, alright)
If the music plays forever
(For it goes on and on and on and on and on)
(It's gonna be alright)
If the music plays forever
(Alright, alright, alright, alright)
(I think it's gonna be alright)
It's gonna be alright
(Alright, alright, alright, alright)
(For it goes on and on and on and on and on)
(If the music plays) forever
(On and on and on and on forever)
(Alright, alright)
(For it goes on and on and on and on forever)
