Jeunesse d’Orée

Lyrics
The youth are voting with their feet Such a shame that the dance-beat gets so complicated Pretty, pretty it seems... On second glance, the look is overrated In the hot-house there's a magic potion Timeless motion... Now and again now lasts forever Jeunesse d'orée gilding the lily of pleasure The youth are voting with their clothes Such a shame that the hip pose is so calculated Round and round it goes: How careless the rapture that's overstated In the picture lost devotion Waveless ocean Time and again style goes out of fashion; Jeunesse d'orée taking the heat out of passion Look at the kid with the golden touch Check out the stony expression; Look at the man with the golden arm And the sensational lesson Follow-my-leader's a game we can play Till we swallow the tail without thinking: Catch the hook, toe the line Never mind that we're sinking!
