Imagine a place where you don't need a name And you don't need a license to open your mind Well, it's a traveling circus of jokers and clowns A movie picture that's one of its kind And this place is the only place Where even the clergy dance in the rain And I know if I was stronger I'd change my ways and join the parade with you From the backstreets of this island Move on, move on To the walkways of the mainland Move on Dirty face and oily hands But adament of life so clean and so pure And in a perfect world the rights of man Could never betray the rights of the land And this way is the only way The pilgrims walk a trail of song
And I know if you were stronger You'd change your ways, you'd join the parade with me From the backstreets of this island Move on, move on To the walkways of the mainland Move on Deeper and deeper, my blood runs deeper Under the skies of time Higher and higher, my soul leaps higher Over the clay and lime Deeper and deeper, my blood runs deeper Under the skies of time Higher and higher, my soul leaps higher Over the clay and lime From the backstreets of this island Move on, move on To the walkways of the mainland Move on From the backstreets of this island Move on, move on To the walkways of the mainland Move on
