Thru’ These Architect’s Eyes lyrics
by Pet Shop Boys
[Intro]
(We're living in the golden age, the golden age, the golden age now)
(We're living in the golden age, the golden age, the golden age now)
(We're living in the golden age, the golden age, the golden age now)
[Verse 1]
Stomping along on this big Philip Johnson
Is delay just wasting my time
Looking across at Richard Rogers
Scheming dreams to blow both their minds
[Pre-Chorus]
It's difficult, you see, to give up, baby
To leave a job when you, you know the money's from day to day
[Chorus]
All the majesty of a city landscape
All the soaring days in our lives
All the concrete dreams in my mind's eye
All the joy I see thru' these architect's eyes
(We're living in the golden age, the golden age, the golden age now)
[Verse 2]
Cold winter bleeds on the girders of Babel
This stone boy watching the crawling land
Rings of flesh and the towers of iron
The steaming caves and the rocks and the sand
Stomping along on this big Philip Johnson
Is delay just wasting my time
[Pre-Chorus]
It's difficult, you see, to give up, baby
These summer sc*mholes, this goddamned starving life
[Chorus]
All the majesty of a city landscape
All the soaring days in our lives
All the concrete dreams in my mind's eye
All the joy I see thru' these architect's eyes
(We're living in the golden age, the golden age, the golden age now)
[Outro]
It's difficult, you see
It's difficult, you see
[Chorus]
All the majesty of a city landscape
All the soaring days in our lives
All the concrete dreams in my mind's eye
All the joy I see thru' these architect's eyes
