Song lyrics Welcome to the Pleasuredome (1984) Shooting stars never stop even when they reach the top.Shooting stars never stop even when they reach the top.There goes a supernova. What a pushover, yeah. "Welcome to the Pleasuredome" We're a long way from home,Welcome to the Pleasuredome.On our way home,Going home where lovers roam.Long way from home,Welcome to the Pleasuredome. "Welcome to the Pleasuredome" Relax, don't do itWhen you want to go to it.Relax, don't do it,When you want to come. "Relax" But shoot it in the right direction.Make makin' it your intention (Ooh yeah, ooh yeah).Live those dreams,Scheme those schemes.Got to hit me (Hit me!),Hit me (Hit me!),Hit me with those laser beams. "Relax" War has caused unrest among the younger generation.Induction then destruction. Who wants to die? "War" When two tribes go to war,A point is all that you can score.Score no more! Score no more!When two tribes go to war,A point is all that you can score. "Two Tribes" Dreams are like angels;They keep bad at bay, bad at bay.Love is the light,Scaring darkness away.I'm so in love with you.Purge the soul,Make love your goal. "The Power of Love" Liverpool (1986) From diamond mine to the factory,Everybody's doing what you've got to keep on doing for society.Make this world a good place to be,Let livin' be but don't work for free.Playing isn't paying so work is what I'm saying,Working for the world go roundThe battle cry don't mess with me,I've travelled the world for eternity. "Warriors of the Wasteland" Let the tournament beginDon't give up and don't give in.Strength to rise up, strength to win,Strength to save the world from losing.Rage hard, into the light.Rage hard, doing it right.Rage hard, against the dark.Rage hard. "Rage Hard" If you live by the sword,Well that's your own reward.So don't walk with me,Watching the wildlife.The beast within youEats your heart out.Get free from hate and get in love.
