New Equations (At the Copacabana)
[Verse 1]
Made-up tears and made-up lives
Made-up cheers and made-up minds
In the made-up world, you pass the hours away
Today
[Verse 2]
The wind-up clock, the plastic flowers
Little minds in ivory towers
In the made-up world, you wind the hours away
Today
You erase
[Bridge]
If you could then maybe you should
If you could then maybe you should
[Verse 3]
A real gent, heaven-sent
Close the vents at the Copacabana
Your bombardier is in the clear
Changing guard at the Copacabana
[Verse 4]
Out on the floor, who'd ask for more?
Count the cost at the Copacabana
Smoke and mirrors at the Copacabana
[Verse 5]
There’s many ways through the maze
C'est la vie a la Copacabana
