What do you want? Zooropa: better by design Zooropa: fly the friendly skies Through appliance of science We've got that ring of confidence And I have no compass and I have no map And I have no reasons, no reasons to get back And I have no religion and I don't know what's what And I don't know the limit, the limit of what we've got (Oh, oh, oh) don't worry baby (oh, oh, oh) it'll be alright (Oh, oh, oh) you got the right shoes to get you through the night (Oh, oh, oh) it's cold outside (oh, oh, oh) but brightly lit (Oh, oh, oh) skip the subway, let's go to the overground Get your head out of the mud, baby Put flowers in the mud, baby Overground No particular place names, no particular songs I been hidin', what am I hidin' from? (Oh, oh, oh) don't worry baby (oh, oh, oh) it's gonna be alright (Oh, oh, oh) uncertainty can be a guiding light (Oh, oh, oh) I hear voices (oh, oh, oh) ridiculous voices (Oh, oh, oh) I'm in the slipstream, let's go, let's go overground Take your head out of the mud, baby She's gonna dream up the world she wants to live in She's gonna dream out loud She's gonna dream out loud Dream out loud
