Model Beirut Recital Lyrics - John Cale

When they grow up, the silly people who will run the world 

When I'm thinking of the silly men 

People trying to run the world 

Something must be done about it 

Something must be done right now 

'bout the silly people trying to run the world 

And I hear them call out my name when I run run 

Then I hear them call out my name when I run 

When I run, when I run, when I run run 

But something must be done about it 

Something must be done right now 

About all the people trying to run the world 

And they are whistling in the dark 

I'm whistling for a friend 

Whistling in the dark again

And we all fall down 

And we all fall down 

And we all fall down 

And we all fall down 

In a Modern Beirut Recital 

In Model Beirut again 

Modern Beirut Recital 

Modern Beirut Recital 

Again 

The lady beggar hear them in the street 

They're gonna break down the doors 

They'll knock knock 

Well, something must be done about it 

About the silly people trying to break down my door 

They break down the door 

They break down the door 

They break down the door

Whistling in the dark 

I'm whistling for a friend 

Whistling in the dark again 

All fall down ... 

Modern Beirut Recital 

Model Beirut again 

And we all fall down ... 

Model Beirut again
