Put Your Head Up Songtext
von Gary Kemp

My feet are dragging, my arms feel weight
Been tripping on stones, although I know I′m always running late
My eyes are blurry, my mouth, it's dry
Been dealing with things so badly, listen, I apologize

There′s a ringing in my ears
The dog days and the years (and the years)

Put your head up, put your head up
Put your head up, it's alright

She made her story, she made the stage
They came, and they ate her up in nothing more than half a page
But I heard her singing and I heard her play
Saw into her heart and heard what she was trying to say

There's a music in my ears
The dog days and the fears (and the fears)

Put your head up, put your head up
Put your head up, it′s alright


Man on the street, slumped in a chair
He feels the shame of losing in his soul
He loves the boy he was that cut a dash
Under the lash of rock and roll
Of rock and roll

There′s a ringing in my ears
And the dog days and the years

Put your head up, put your head up
Put your head up, it's alright

It′s got to be beauty, I got to be glad
Got to be the best thing that this man has ever thought he had
Got to be thankful, got to take some pain
Got to make the most of it all, and I got to make that outbound train

Put your head up, put your head up
Put your head up, it's alright
Put your head up, put your head up
Put your head up, it′s alright
Put your head up, put your head up
Put your head up, it's alright
Put your head up, put your head up
Put your head up, it′s alright, it's alright


(Put your head up) got to be beauty
(Put your head up) got to be glad
(Put your head up) got to be the best thing
That this man has ever thought he had
(Put your head up) got to be thankful
(Put your head up) got to take some pain
(Put your head up) got to make the most of it all
