New Wave Lyrics

[Verse 1: Elvis Costello]
Where do we go from here?
If our house is burning
Streets are all running with rain
I'm on a train with no destination

[Verse 2: Elvis Costello]
If paper was valued like gold
And feathers and scales were bought and sold
They'd be fishing for fortunes and that's why they've stolen the birds from the sky


[Verse 3: Bojan Cvjetićanin]
We're raising our glasses to cheer, if we can find our way out of here
If we can just drain the tap, unfold the treasure map
And maybe in sorrow, beg, steal or borrow
We were born yesterday, but we are blamed for tomorrow

[Chorus: Both & Elvis Costello]
Everybody join our carnival
Just to be a particle
Old hands stretch out of the grave
Say, "That’s a new wave"

[Verse 4: Elvis Costello]
So praise the rays of the sun, they keep the hope in
Fly high with ten thousand souls
Let go my hand while I take the controls

[Verse 5: Bojan Cvjetićanin]
Better to love this world, so cruel and so complex
Than to live every day of our lives afraid of the next

[Chorus: Both]
Everybody join our carnival
Just to be a particle
Old hands stretch up from the grave
Say, "That’s a new wave"

[Bridge: Bojan Cvjetićanin]
Freely we are sailing, even if we're failing
Mistakes are made of gold
Mistakes are made of gold

[Chorus: Joker Out & Elvis Costello]
Vabljeni vsi na karneval
Da se odrinemo od tal
Generacija ljubezni, upanja, novi val
(That's a new wave)

[Outro: Joker Out & Elvis Costello]
Delajmo napake
Čisto iz vsake
Izpira se zlato
That’s a new wave, that’s a new wave
