Joan

[Intro: Andy Bell]

Never tasted

[Verse 1: Andy Bell]

Power generation

You live up your life and it feels like fire

Suspended in animation

A trick of the light and it drives you higher

[Pre-Chorus 1: Andy Bell]

Blind vision blind faith

You really can be sold

If you dare to disagree

[Chorus: Andy Bell]

It's just not within the scheme of things

To give up your life so easily

That's not the way you're meant to be

What a waste of time and energy

It's just not within the scheme of things (Live your life)

To give up your life so easily (I'll be there)

Easily

[Verse 2: Andy Bell]

Psychic celebration

Look up in the stars and see Venus rising

Rapture, fascination (Rapture)

You live for the night and your own desire

[Pre-Chorus 2: Andy Bell]

Blind vision blind faith

You really can't rely

On what they tell you for effect

[Chorus: Andy Bell]

It's just not within the scheme of things (Live your life)

To give up your life so easily

That's not the way you're meant to be (I do care)

What a waste of time and energy

It's just not within the scheme of things (Live your life)

To give up your life so easily

That's not the way you're meant to be (I'll be there)

What a waste of time and energy, energy

[Interlude: Andy Bell]

Give, give power

Give, give power

[Pre-Chorus 1: Andy Bell]

Blind vision blind faith

You really can be sold

If you dare to disagree

[Chorus: Andy Bell]

It's just not within the scheme of things (Live your life)

To give up your life so easily

That's not the way you're meant to be (I do care)

What a waste of time and energy

It's just not within the scheme of things (Live your life)

To give up your life so easily

That's not the way you're meant to be (I'll be there)

What a waste of time and energy

[Chorus: Andy Bell]

It's just not within the scheme of things (Live your life)

To give up your life so easily

That's not the way you're meant to be (I do care)

What a waste of time and energy

It's just not within the scheme of things (Live your life)

To give up your life so easily

That's not the way you're meant to be (I'll be there)

What a waste of time and energy, energy

[Outro: Andy Bell]

Energy (Live your life)

Easy, easy, easy

Energy (I do care)

(Live your life)

(I'll be there)
