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
