It's a hot summer night in the city
The steam's rising up from the ground
The nightclubbing crowd are all steppin' out
Like a serpentine line going round and around
The girls paint their faces like neon
Trying to stand out in the crowd
They quiver in their desperation
You can tell by the way they are talking too loud
And this voice in my head keeps on saying
It's time to find a way out of here
And the answers come, strong and true
You're so fine, Philistines
After all we're just animals
Heaven knows where love goes
Disappears into the shadows
If tonight feels alright
You and me can kiss the night sky
Fly away, we'll escape
Far away from all this world of pain
The scent of your quiet desperation,
You're having a panic attack
The room's full of sweat and confusion
And you know there is no turning back
And this voice in my head keeps on saying
It's time to find a way out of here
And the answers come, strong and true
You're so fine, Philistines,
After all we're just animals
Heaven knows where love goes
Disappears into the shadows
If tonight feels alright
You and me can kiss the night sky
Fly away, we'll escape
Far away from all this world of pain
