Sparks - Tryouts for the Human Race lyrics
[Sparks - Tryouts for the Human Race lyrics]
We're just a gleam in lover's eyes
Steam on sweaty bodies in the night
One of us might make it through
The rest will disappear like dew
Pressure building, gettin' hot
Give it, give it, give it all you got
When that love explosion comes
My, oh my, we want to be someone
Tryouts for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Ah, we are a quarter billion strong
Tryouts for the human race
From twilight time 'til dawn
We just want to be someone
We're the future and the past
We're the only way you're gonna last
We're just pawns in a funny game
Tiny actors in the oldest play
It's an angry sea we face
Just to get the chance to join the race
Gotta make it, gotta try
Gotta get the chance to live and die
Tryouts for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Ah, we are a quarter billion strong
Tryouts for the human race
From twilight time 'til dawn
We just want to be someone
We must, we must, we must leave from here
We must, we must, we must
We must leave from here
Gotta make our play, gotta get away
Gotta make our play, gotta get away
Gotta make our play, gotta get away
Gotta make our play
Let us out of here, let us out of here
Let us out of here
We just want to feel the sun
And be your little daughter or your son
We're just words that lovers use
Words that light that automatic fuse
When that love explosion comes
My, oh my, we want to be someone
Tryouts for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Ah, we are a quarter billion strong
Tryouts for the human race
From twilight time 'til dawn
We just want to be someone
Steam on sweaty bodies in the night
One of us might make it through
The rest will disappear like dew
Pressure building, gettin' hot
Give it, give it, give it all you got
When that love explosion comes
My, oh my, we want to be someone
Tryouts for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Ah, we are a quarter billion strong
Tryouts for the human race
From twilight time 'til dawn
We just want to be someone
We're the future and the past
We're the only way you're gonna last
We're just pawns in a funny game
Tiny actors in the oldest play
It's an angry sea we face
Just to get the chance to join the race
Gotta make it, gotta try
Gotta get the chance to live and die
Tryouts for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Ah, we are a quarter billion strong
Tryouts for the human race
From twilight time 'til dawn
We just want to be someone
We must, we must, we must leave from here
We must, we must, we must
We must leave from here
Gotta make our play, gotta get away
Gotta make our play, gotta get away
Gotta make our play, gotta get away
Gotta make our play
Let us out of here, let us out of here
Let us out of here
We just want to feel the sun
And be your little daughter or your son
We're just words that lovers use
Words that light that automatic fuse
When that love explosion comes
My, oh my, we want to be someone
Tryouts for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Ah, we are a quarter billion strong
Tryouts for the human race
From twilight time 'til dawn
We just want to be someone
