strangers in my back yard
selling you beliefs
danger in my empire
trouble on the streets
and I don't want to modernize
and I don't want to rearrange
I don't want to fix up
and I don't want to change
hold on to the things that you love
hold on to the things that you love
hold on
danger in the papers
danger in the magazines
sell you ideas
sell you false dreams
and I don't want to modernize
and I don't want to rearrange
I don't want to fix up
and I don't want to change
hold on to the things you can feel
hold on to the things that are real
hold on
strangers in my back yard
selling you beliefs
danger in my empire
trouble on the streets
and I don't want to modernize
and I don't want to change
I don't want to fix up
I don't want to rearrange
hold on to the things you can feel
hold on to the things that are real
hold on to the things that you love
hold on to the things that you love
hold on to the things you believe
hold on to the things that you see
hold on to the one that you love
hold on to the one that you love
