Switched On

Islands

I've put on, something you can't switch off
 I hope I don't cry
 But I know I will
 And you know how it feels
 On the north side, on the south side
 They sing along when you switch on

 You switch on for the city
 Well I'm gone from the city
 Come on strong winds move on
 You belong in the city
 I'm wrong for the city
 Switch on a sad song when I'm gone

 When in New York, I stay indoors
 Go into the city and switch up the pity
 On the train, someone says
 Something about how Jesus saves
 But I'm too lost, to be found
 You put on a good face when I wasn't around

 On the east side
 On the west side
 They sing along when you switch on
 They sing along when you switch on

 You switch on for the city
 Well I'm gone from the city
 Come on strong winds, move on
 You belong in the city
 I'm wrong for the city
 Switch on a sad song when I'm gone
