Lyrics
Sister Sledge
We're lost in music
Caught in a trap
No turnin' back
We're lost in music
We're lost in music
Feel so alive
I quit my nine-to-five
We're lost in music
[Verse 1]
Have you ever seen some people lose everything?
First to go is their mind (Huh)
Responsibility to me is a tragedy
I'll get a job some other time, uh-huh
I want to join a band and play in front of crazy fans
Yes, I call that temptation
Give me the melody, that's all that I ever need
The music is my salvation
We're lost in music
Caught in a trap
No turnin' back
We're lost in music
We're lost in music
Feel so alive
I quit my nine-to-five
We're lost in music
Mmm-hmm, in the spotlight, the band plays so very tight
Each and every night, uh-huh
It's not vanity, to me, it's my sanity
I could never survive
Some people ask me, "What are you gonna be?
Why don't you go get a job?" Uh-uh
All that I could say, "I won't give up my music"
Not me, not now, no way, no how, oh
We're lost in music
Caught in a trap (Caught up in our music)
No turnin' back
We're lost in music
We're lost in music (Don't take our away our music)
Feel so alive (Feel)
I quit my nine-to-five (I quit, yeah)
We're lost in music
We're lost in music (Melody is good to me)
Caught in a trap (I'm caught up in it)
No turnin' back (No, no, no)
We're lost in music
We're lost in music
Feel so alive
I quit my nine-to-five (I quit)
We're lost in music (Lost in music)
We're lost in music
Caught in a trap
No turnin' back
We're lost in music
We're lost in music
Feel so alive
I quit my nine-to-five
We're lost in music
We're lost in music
Caught in a trap
No turnin' back
We're lost in music
The Fall
Les money il sur le table
Il money il sur la table
The palace of excess leads to the palace of Access
Hideaway!
Le money
Sur la table
Hideaway
I'm lost in music
Feel so alive
Hideaway
Sur la table
I'm lost in music
Caught in a trap
No looking back
Le money il sur la table
Brick house refurbishment of pubs in the hideaway
I heard a voice saying
Hideaway
I'm lost in music
Caught in a trap
And there's no looking back
I'm lost in music
I'm lost in music
Feel so alive
I quit my ten-to-five 1
I'm lost in music
I'm lost in music
Lost in music
Hideaway
Snag table top, snag
Dip dip dip refurbishment of pubs
In the hideaway
And then I heard a voice say
You're lost in music
No turning back
Caught in a trap
You're lost in music
I'm lost in music
Caught in a trap
And there's no looking back
I'm lost in music
L'argent est sur la table
Pris au piege
Inutile de regarder en arriere
Perdu dans la musique
Cretin, va te faire foutre!
I'm lost in music
I feel so alive
I quit my ten-to-five
I'm lost in music
