The Frontman - Madrugada

Let’s walk on by, this time, this time

Let’s keep it right, just like it used to be

It’s such a long and wasted ride

When you’re on your own, when you’re all alone

I throw a word in for the real men

Hey driver man, hey cardboard man

On a cardboard scene you know it’s never make-believe

Now, do you believe in me?

And freedom’s only what they strip away from you

You fight back

But what you gain is nothing like it

Let’s walk on by

It’s a mellow song and I mean it well

So don’t you trample me down!

Cause it took a lot of nerve

For me to try and come across

Let’s do it, let’s do it right

I tried, I tried so hard I could only fail

Let’s do it, let’s do it right

Right now, right now

And don’t you ever walk away from me

I’m gonna need you round for the rebound

I search myself for sheets of paper

Some little stain, some little stain

And this is all conclusive evidence

Everybody rise, I rest my case

Right now, right now

I find it hard being strong these days

I find it very hard, hard

And even harder in the night-time

When all these clouds come down

I find I’m very, very, hard to define

I could not be electric animal’s, front-man

All distorted, all noise

And this is never, ever, my familiar voice
