Arcadia - Election Day from (So Red The Rose) 1985...
Arcadia was a spin-off group created by three members of Duran Duran (Simon Le Bon, Nick Rhodes and Roger Taylor) in 1985.
This very underrated album features collaborations and guest musicians from artists such as Sting, Herbie Hancock and the legendary David Gilmour (from Pink Floyd)
Lyrics for Election Day:
Wild kind of look to the day
Opening eyes impale neon flickers
She moon she turning away
The city's her slave but he's cheating his mistress
She's moody and gray
She's mean and she's restless
(so restless so restless indeed)
All over you as they say
Rumours or rivals yell at the strike force
Hi guys, by the way
Are you aware you're being illegal
It's making your saviour behaviour look evil
'scuse my timing but say
How d'you fit in with this flim, flam and judy
Maximum big surprise
Your smile is something new
I pull my shirt off and pray
We're sacred and bound
To suffer the heatwave
Pull my shirt off and pray
We're coming up on re-election day
Stretching my luck down the way
To your invitation stretching my body
Use your intuitive play
'cause maybe we have more play time than money
Maximum big surprise
She knows something new
I pull my shirt off and pray
I'm saving myself to suffer the heatwave
Pull my shirt off and pray
We're coming up on re-election day
Byroads and backways
A lover's chance downwind
Cut open murmurs and sounds
Becalm hands on the skin
Carry further
Entangled strands
(all sing!)
I'm saving some time to slip away
We could dive! oh...
Shouldn't be asking...
Wild and scheming
Could be my election day
Maximum big surprise
You know something new
I pull my shirt off and pray
We're sacred and bound
To suffer the heatwave
Pull my shirt off and pray
We're coming up on re-election day
Re-election day
