Rip It Up — текст песни (Gary Numan)

The new law is moving in
Now you see them now you don`t
Like a Shadow in my diguise
Like a soft machine on ice
Who are you?
`I`m the man
I am the cure and disease`
Who am I?
I`m the need
I am the weakness that feeds

I`ve got to rip it up
I`ve got to tear it down
I`ve got to break the word
I`ve got to fight for you

Who am I to criticise
I`m unsafe at any speed
`We can change the world` she said
Never changed it never tried
I`m cold and hard
But I don`t mind
I`ve been everything I can be
I`ve been sick
And I`ve got he screams
These boys don`t know when to push

Did you know that I don`t run
Did you know that I don`t hide
Did you know that I don`t sleep
Did you know that I don`t care

I am the soft machine
I am the word and the law
I am the new machine
I am your feelings and more
Come inside and Play with me
I`ll show you things to forget
No-one talks
And no-one leaves
No-one remembers the way

I`ve got to fight the man
I`ve got to fight the need
I`ve got to fight the law
I`ve got to fight the word
