Original Sin
(The Natives Are Restless Tonight)


(Steinman)
I've been looking for an original sin.
One with a twist and a bit of a spin, and since I've
done all the old ones 'till they've all been done in,
now I'm just looking, then I'm gone with the wind.
Endlessly searching for an original sin

(Girls)
You can dance forever
You've got a fire in your feet
But will it ever be enough
You know that it'll never be enough
You can fly and never land
And never need to sleep
But will it ever be enough
You know that it'll never be enough

It's not enough to make the nightmares go away
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
It's not enough to live a little better every day
Everything that they taught us,
Was nothing but lies
Everything that the bought us,
Was nothing but bribes
But it'll all be over now -

All I wanted was a piece of the night
I never got an equal share
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down -
The natives are so restless tonight

All I needed was a spot in the light
It never had to get so dark
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down -
The natives are so restless tonight
The natives are so restless tonight

I've been looking for the ultimate crime
Infinite victims, Infinitesimal time -
And I'm so very guilty for no reason or rhyme
So now I'm just looking
And I'm killing some time -
Endlessly searching for the ultimate crime

You can lose yourself in pleasure
Till your body's going numb
But will it ever be enough
You know that it'll never be enough
You can always take whatever
You conceivably could want
But will it ever be enough
You know that it can never be enough

It's not enough to make the nightmares go away
It's not enough to make the tears run dry
It's not enough to live a little better every day
Everything that they taught us,
Was nothing but lies
Everything that the bought us,
Was nothing but bribes
But it'll all be over now -

All I wanted was a piece of the night
I never got an equal share
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down -
The natives are so restless tonight

All I needed was a spot in the light
It never had to get so dark
When the stars are out of sight
And the moon is down -
The natives are so restless tonight
The natives are so restless tonight

I've been looking for an original sin.

(Steinman)
I'm applying for a license to thrill
Going out on the edge - Moving in for the kill
And there'll be hell to pay someday
Put it all on the bill
Cause we'll always be paying -
And paying until -
We're beyond expiration
With a license to thrill
