Grand Designs Songtext
von Rush

A to B
Different degrees

So much style without substance
So much stuff without style
It′s hard to recognize the real thing
It comes along once in a while
Like a rare and precious metal beneath a ton of rock
It takes some time and trouble to separate from the stock
You sometimes have to listen to a lot of useless talk
Shapes and forms, against the norm

Against the run-of-the-mill
Swimming against the stream
Life in two dimensions is a mass production scheme

So much poison in power, the principles get left out
So much mind on the matter, the spirit gets forgotten about
Like a righteous inspiration overlooked in haste
Like a teardrop in the ocean, a diamond in the waste
Some world views are spacious
And some are merely spaced


Against the run-of-the-mill
Static as it seems
We break the surface tension with our wild kinetic dreams
Curves and lines
Of grand designs
Against the run-of-the-mill
Swimming against the stream
Life in two dimensions is a mass production scheme

Against the run-of-the-mill
Static as it seems
We break the surface tension with our wild kinetic dreams, oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh
