Let's run baby through these city streets We're all victims of captivity Let's stop the madness without any tricks I'll whisper bible quotes and you can read my lips Let's get back to the fundamental things Let's get back to the elements of style Let's get back to where it all began Let's get back to the fundamental things Let's dance barefoot over broken glass Slither like a snake does through the wet cold grass Howl and tremble in a sleepless grind Let's do the brain drain and leave it all behind Let's get back to the fundamental things Let's get back to the elements of style Let's get back to where it all began Let's get back to the fundamental things You can sit in your room and worry You can contemplate the end Or let your house burn down behind you Run with me through the streets again Let's get back, I wanna go back Let's get back, let's get back Let's get back to the fundamental things Let's get back to the elements of style Let's get back to where it all began Let's get back to the fundamental things You can hide out on your rooftop Wishing you had never been Or go down to Hal's Bar and Grill And find your innocence again Let's get back, let's get back Let's get back, I wanna go back I've got to go back
