"Say The Word" lyrics - DURAN DURAN

["Playing For Keeps" soundtrack]

There's a skill it's nothing we could learn at school
With the will to survive beneath this rule
Money thrives as corruption's president
To waste the lives of the young and innocent

But after all every system can be disobeyed
So when we call please don't think twice or be afraid
Hey, mister
Say something

Say the word if your eyes are open
Say the word before this love is broken
Say the word

The lights are down but you don't sleep so tight
The word's around that we play for keeps tonight
As we all know even the best laid plans go wrong sometime
But if it blows we'll be the ones they victimize

Hey, mister
Say something

Say the word if your eyes are open
It's time we tried
Say the word before this love is broken

Say the word if your eyes are open
It's time we tried
Say the word before this love is broken

Say the word if your eyes are open
It's time we tried
Say the word before this love is broken
