Polka
Yves Klein Blue Lyrics

Brother hold your head this way,
Hey, friend, hold your head up high and walk confidently to the front of the line.

And bustle to the front of the line;
Move quickly to the front of the line and show them you belong there.

'cause if they catch your eyes before you get inside
If they find out you don't belong there before you can even get in,

Well, you'll never be allowed.
you will be denied entry and never get the chance to experience something new.

People got a name for us
Some call us rebels,

'cause we escape the strain of the days
because we find ways to have fun and escape from the everyday grind.

Oh we stretch at the sides and bend in the middle
We are resilient and can adapt to different situations.

But we never ever break.
But we never give up or surrender.

But if you're feeling that way now,
But if you're feeling rebellious now,

Or if you ever feel so inclined -
Or if you ever feel the urge to break free,

Skip past the doors of boring forty somethings and rise.
Skip those mundane activities and strive for something new and exciting.

Oh, and if you want to lose your frown,
If you want to be happy and carefree again,

Or your name or even your face -
Or even change your identity entirely,

Lick up a dream that seemingly sings with whistling neon breath.
Dream big and pursue something that is vibrant, exciting, and electrifying.

Come and have a drink with us,
Come join us for a drink,

A little wine or a nice champagne?
Would you like some wine or champagne?

Oh thanks that's nice, and I would decline,
No thanks, I appreciate the offer, but I'll pass.

But at night things seem to change.
But things can be different at night and more exciting.

And if you're feeling that way now,
And if you're feeling rebellious now,

Or if you ever feel so inclined,
Or if you feel the urge to break free,

Well, kick in the shins of all those fucking whingers and rise.
Don't let anyone hold you back and rise to the top despite their negativity.

Oh and if you want to lose your frown,
If you want to be happy and carefree again,

Or your name or even your face,
Or even change your identity entirely,

Lick up a dream that seemingly sings with whistling neon breath.
Dream big and pursue something that is vibrant, exciting, and electrifying.

Sid was at the gates of dawn,
Sid was at a pivotal point in his life,

And Jimmy said ride the snake:
And Jimmy encouraged him to take a risk and try something new.

So we bent our spoons and howled at the moon
We did whatever it took to achieve our goals, even if it seemed crazy.

To find what science replaced.
To find what we have lost in our modern, scientific world.

And it turns out it ain't that much
And it turns out that we didn't actually lose that much after all.

Though I may have missed it in the haze -
Though it might have been hard to see through the confusion.

Oh drips in the mind and fills up your eyes
Oh, it fills your mind and makes your eyes water with emotion.

But we'll never be the same.
But we'll never be able to go back to the way things were before.

(Shhh)
(Quiet whisper)

But if you're ever coming down,
But if you're ever feeling low after experiencing something great,

Or if you ever take too much -
Or if you ever indulge in excess,

Remember that's much better than never ever getting enough.
It's better to have lived and experienced something to the fullest than never to have experienced it at all.

So if your want to lose your frown,
So if you want to be happy and carefree again,

Or your name or even your face,
Or even change your identity entirely,

Lick up a dream that seemingly screams with rushing neon death.
Pursue a dream that is ambitious and makes your heart race with excitement and fear.

All your spirits gone, and you are barley alive.
You've lost all your motivation and feel like you're barely hanging on.

You hand me a smoke, though its like you hardly notice.
You offer me a cigarette, but you seem absent-minded and lost in thought.

And its sad I suppose - When I look into your eyes you say:
It's a sad situation, and when I try to connect with you emotionally, you say:

It seems to go this way, no matter what's at stake,
This seems to be how life goes, no matter what risks we take.

Oh it seems to go this way with everything I start!
It feels like I always end up in the same place, no matter what I try to do.

(Solo)
(Instrumental solo)

So if you're feeling that way now,
So if you're feeling rebellious now,

Or if you ever feel so inclined -
Or if you ever feel the urge to break free,

Skip past the doors of boring forty somethings and rise.
Take the leap and go for something more exciting and fulfilling.

Oh but if you want to loose your frown,
If you want to be happy and carefree again,

Or your name or even your face -
Or even change your identity entirely,

Lick up a dream that seemingly sings with rushing neon death.
Pursue a dream that is ambitious and makes your heart race with excitement and fear.
