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

A great song by Arcadia! "Election Day" was a featured track on the November 9th, 1985 edition of "American Top 40 - The '80s", & was the #29 song.Bravo, Arcadia!
