Adam Ant - WHAT'S GOING ON lyrics

rate me

Giorgio Moroder/Pete Belotte

(from the soudtrack of "Metropolis", 1984)

Is there a mask behind the face

Is it a sleeveless ace

Can a smile conceal a sneer

How do we see clear

What makes the truth curl up and lie

Is it the fly-by-night

If the counterfeit's the sham

How do we all stand

The deeper we put in the problem - the less we know

What's going on

I wanna know

What's going on

Remember all the cracks you feared

Beneath the clear veneer

Well, now they're bursting wide apart

And this is just the start

How does it feel to lose control - lose your goal

So who's a friend and who's a foe - time to show

What's going on

I wanna know

What's going on
