Living In Danger Lyrics

Live for yourself,
its a wonderful thing,
you can do what you want,
you can live in a dream,
get up, get in, get the rhythm, get down
You're living your life in peace and in harmony
You're making your own decisions
That's how its got to be for you and me,
so many people are running 'round and 'round
Without any sense of logic

[ Chorus ]

I see lies, in the eyes of a stranger
Whoa-oh, you'll be living in danger
Live for yourself its a wonderful thing
you can do what you want you can live in a dream
get up, get in, get the rhythm, get down

Keep moving your feet don't go wasting your time
Everybody's moving, yeah they're getting in line
get up, get in, get the rhythm, get down

[ Chorus ]

People are the same today as they used to be
The same expectations, so high no one can reach
that high not I nor you get satisfied today,
we never get enough

[ Chorus ]

People are the same today as they used to be...
We never get enough

[ Chorus ]

Look into the eyes of a stranger
Oh so much danger, oh so much danger
Look into the eyes of a stranger
oh so much danger, oh so much danger
Look into the eyes of a stranger..
In the eyes of a stranger..
You'll be living... in danger...

That it is better to live in danger and follow your own pass than following the masses beacuse life is short.

Excelente song, and I agree with MasqueradeSeattle's interpretation. It's abuot not doing the same as the bunch of people do, but getting your own way even if there are risks.

guys seriously, did you listen to the lyrics? It certainly is notsaying "it's good to live in danger"... quite the opposite...

Listen to the lyrics: "Expectations, so high noone can reach" - "We never get enough" It's about high expecatation and strong ambition ---> It's about the feeling of beeing in competition with everybody else. It's driving us to see other people as enemies before we even know them --> "I see lies in the eyes of a stranger". Paranoid out of fear.

The message is a real as it was the time the song appearded and it's quite an important one... don't turn this into "be yourself" - because that can be an empty message...

That's about it, i think it's rather obvious.

Love this song, think its about politicians and you're living in danger if you trust them.

@xxemoboixx Especially Republicans and their equivalents around the world.
